A major component of service provided by the Utilities Department is the risk assessment involving waterborne contaminants through natural or manmade means. It is our responsibility to provide guidance and assistance to prevent exposure to drinking water contaminants that could present a threat to our resident’s health.
Water suppliers are required by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) to notify customers to boil water when conditions exist that may cause the water supply to be vulnerable to the potential for contamination.
A Precautionary Boil Water Notice (PBWN) is a form of notification that advises customers to boil tap water used for drinking, cooking and ice-making until tests verify the water is safe.
The determination that the water is safe is a process through which the Utility Operations and Maintenance Contractor sends water samples to a State Certified Water Testing Lab and receives a report back stating that the water samples meet all federal and state regulations. The precautionary boil water notice would then be rescinded by notifying all affected residents.
