A Boil Water Advisory will be issued by the Ridgeville Water Department for the following areas. For customers and businesses on the North side of the railroad tracks from Carter's Fast Stop down to Key West Boats. Please see map for visual. Dorchester County Water and Sewer will be doing a scheduled water repair at Carter's Fast Stop on Thursday, May 29, 2025. The water will need to be turned off in order to complete these repairs.
