The City of Crisfield has been experiencing some water problems.
The town is working to upgrade its infrastructure lines.
But that has left many without water for the first part of this week.
High water levels on Monday led to a delay in the work.
And even with an additional contractor the water was not expected to be turned back on until today.
The water problems forced the closure of the Crisfield Academy & High School and Woodson Elementary school well as some businesses.
City Manager Rick Pollitt told the Salisbury Daily Times that the repairs include new water lines, the repair of some broken pipes as well as the replacement of a fire hydrant at City Dock.
