The city advises residents in these areas to:
- Boil water for a least one full minute after water begins to bubble. This includes water used for brushing teeth, making ice and drinks, washing food, and even water for pets
- Throw away any ice made during a boil advisory
- Adults and teens can use water for bathing, but should be careful not to swallow water
- Use dishwasher as long as there is a high temperature cycle
- Wash clothes as normal
- After advisory, flush house pipes, ice makers, hot water heaters, water softeners, garden hoses and change filters before using for drinking and cooking
This boiling advisory is a precautionary measure, according to the city, and the likelihood of contamination occurring is minimal.
A water main break earlier this week caused a partial depressurization of the water distribution system, according to the city. If water pressure drops below 20 psi bacterial, then contamination of the drinking water may be a possibility, the city said.
