There's another boil water advisory in effect for those in the Ethelbert Municipality.
A major distribution failure on May 22 has led to the loss of water pressure in the Ethelbert distribution system. Until further notice, all water used for consumption should be brought to a rolling boil for at least one minute.
This includes:
- Drinking and ice making;
- Preparing beverages, such as infant formula;
- Preparing food, including washing fruits and vegetables; and
- Brushing teeth.
You do not need to boil tap water for other household purposes, such as laundry or washing dishes. In addition, young children should be sponge bathed. Adults and other children able to avoid swallowing the water can wash, bathe, or shower.
