HAGERSTOWN, MD (November 16, 2020) – The Washington County Department of Water Quality informs the public that Sandy Hook residents are temporarily without water due to a pipe failing at the water treatment plant. Maintenance crews have been dispatched to the site in order to repair the damaged pipe.
