A message from the Village of Cold Spring

Per Water Superintendent Matt Kroog, Friday 9.9 at 4:00pm, our water reserves are at 68-70% across all five of the Village's drinking water impoundments. We're not out of the woods yet, though, as the New York State Drought Taskforce has our region under watch through October. The emergency conservation orders for all users of the Village of Cold Spring's water supply (including Nelsonville and part of Philipstown) remain in effect as we continue to rebuild our supply from mountain runoff and expected rainfalls. Thank you teaming up to protect our shared water resources.
