High Levels of Lead and Copper Found in Tap Water, U.S. Virgin Islands Issues Warning
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The U.S. Virgin Islands government issued a warning on Friday, alerting residents of St. Croix to avoid drinking tap water due to the discovery of elevated lead and copper levels. Additional tests are underway to identify the source and scope of the issue. Efforts to reduce the contaminants involve the ongoing flushing of water lines by the territory’s Water and Power Authority.

The U.S. Virgin Islands government stated its intent to seek a federal emergency declaration to secure resources for comprehensive testing and assistance. The local Department of Health established hotlines and provided options for lead exposure testing to address concerns.

While the advisory prohibits the consumption of tap water, officials clarified that it remains safe for activities such as showering and cleaning.
