Precautionary boil water notice remains in effect

St. Augustine Record:

A precautionary boil water notice is still in effect for the area around South Dixie Highway at Anderson Street.

The notice was ordered following a water main break Wednesday afternoon, caused by stresses created by the rapid rise in temperature that day.

Area residents and business customers who experienced a temporary loss of water service or low water pressure are asked to boil water as a precaution until further notice.

All water used for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth or washing dishes should be boiled. A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient. As an alternative, bottled water may be used.

For information, call the public works department at 825-1040.

Door hangers were distributed to affected properties.

Door hangers will be distributed when the boil water notice has been lifted or rescinded.
