Laurel, Md.  (January 14, 2025) –WSSC Water has lifted the essential-water-use-only request for all 1.9 million customers in Prince George’s and Montgomery counties, including City of Laurel residents. 

 The water distribution system demand and pressure have stabilized, and water storage levels have returned to normal. The Potomac and Patuxent Water Filtration Plants continue to produce water, meeting customer demand.

 Customers are urged to continue reporting suspected water main breaks and leaks by calling WSSC Water’s Emergency Services Center at (301) 206-4002 or using the WSSC Water Mobile App to report a problem.  

 WSSC Water appreciates the cooperation, partnership, and patience of our customers. Their efforts to limit water use helped avoid a potential Boil Water Advisory and ensured adequate fire protection across Prince George’s and Montgomery counties.
