Sand Hills Water Supply Boil Water Notice Lifted (Update)

March 16, 2016 (Update) - The Boil Water notice for the Sand Hills Water Supply customers that were out of water on March 12, 2016 has been lifted.


March 12, 2016 - Due to a water line break, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has required our water System, Sand Hills Water Supply, to notify customers of the need to boil their water prior to consumption. This notice is only for the customers that were out of water on March 11th and March 12th, 2016.

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 boiled for 2 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 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.
