One minute at a rolling boil kills the germs?

I was always told minimum of 3-5, but that was for water directly from natural sources, not the tap. :idontno:

Correct, it is a general safe guard when a utility pipe breaks as there is a possibility of backwash. It's not like a sewage spill near a pump.

Is there another easily accessible source for updates? My paranoia (too many formative years spent avoiding giardia etc. ) is causing dehydration ;-).

scooterbug, you can call Regional Utilities for an update. They are usually behind the curve on getting the announcements out even for the warnings.

Woo-hoo!

Of course, now I don't have an excuse for not doing the dishes ;-).
