Boil Water Notice In WO Area (updated)

(Rescinded Feb. 2)

BOIL WATER NOTICE IN EFFECT Due to a water main break, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has required our water system Orange County Water Control and Improvement District #2 (West Orange) PWS181006 to notify customers of the need to boil their water prior to consumption.

Customers of West Orange for the following streets only IRVING, BOWIE & HOUSTON., should boil their water to ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking, and making ice should be boiled and cooled prior to use. The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes. In lieu of boiling, you may purchase bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source.
When it is no longer necessary to boil the water, the water system officials will notify you that the water is safe for consumption. Instructions to discontinue boiling will be issued in the same manner as this notice.
If you have questions concerning this matter, you may contact the office @ 409-883-4003. Please share with your friends or family in West Orange.
