BOIL WATER NOTICE:
 
 PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE IN ITS ENTIRETY!!
 
 August 5th, 2012				       PWS I.D. Number: 1660596
  
 ALERT
 PRECAUTIONARY BOIL WATER NOTICE
 Due to a recent compromise in the Regional Utilities distribution system, 
 All Residents from Apostles Way on Hwy 98 and Eastern Lake on 30-A  going West to Mack Bayou Rd on Hwy 98 ( This includes everthing from the  Bay to the Gulf in this area) are  advised to boil all water which is  utilized for drinking or cooking purposes.  A rolling boil for a period  of one minute is sufficient to render the water microbiologically safe.   Residents are also advised to take precautions when bathing, especially  immuno-compromised individuals, infants, or the elderly.
 The  Regional Utilities system lost pressure on August 5th, 2012 at  approximately    7:30 P.M.  A loss in system pressure may cause  discolored water and could cause backsiphonage of contaminants, such as  E. Coli bacteria, into the water system.  Water containing E. Coli  bacteria can be considered safe for drinking and cooking after  vigorously boiling the water.  The water system is currently collecting  samples to determine if the presence of E. Coli bacteria exists within  the water system.  The Regional Utilities system is presently taking  action to correct this problem, however, this notice shall stay in  effect until such time as it is determined that the water is safe to  drink.  A public announcement will be made to rescind that boil water  alert at that time.  All questions should be directed to Regional  Utilities at 850-231-5114 or visit our website at  [URL="http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.regionalutilities.net&h=mAQHqlsi0AQEDKDCS2xRCom-TydK3uaW3wIOmYGUjN0DTmw&s=1"]www.regionalutilities.net[/URL] for updated information.

Another boil water advisory? Wow. Regional Utilities robo-calls its customers to let them know. But your renters don't have a clue unless you inform them. So please contact them. They would obviously appreciate that, as well as being contacted when the advisory is rescinded.
