BOIL WATER ADVISORY
- Hierva su agua antes de usarla –
Due to Drop in Pressure
We routinely monitor the conditions in the drinking water distribution system. On 06/16/2026 we experienced a drop in water pressure below 20 psi/loss of pressure due to equipment failure. A drop in/loss of water pressure creates conditions that could allow contamination to enter the distribution system through backflow, by backpressure, or back-siphonage. As a result, there is an increased chance that the drinking water may contain disease-causing organisms.
What should I do?
- DO NOT DRINK THE WATER WITHOUT BOILING IT FIRST. Bring all water to a boil. Let it boil for one minute and let it cool before using, or use bottled water. Boiled or bottled water should be used for drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation until further notice. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the
- You may continue to use your water to wash your hands using soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Please also use a hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. (Puede seguir utilizando el agua para lavarse las manos usando jabón y agua por lo menos 20 segundos. Por favor use desinfectante de manos después que contenga por lo menos 60% alcohol.)
- Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites, which can cause nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches.
- The symptoms above are caused by many types of organisms. If you experience any of these symptoms and they persist, you may want to seek medical advice. People at increased risk should seek advice about drinking water from their health care
What is being done?
Equipment has been replaced. Water samples have been taken and we are waiting the required 24 hour hold time for results.
We will inform you when you no longer need to boil your water. We anticipate resolving the problem within 24-48 hours.
