BOIL WATER NOTIFICATION
Due to conditions which have occurred recently in the water system, the Texas
Commission on Environmental Quality has required the system to notify customers
in the area on Pleasant Run, west of Millers Ferry, including Pinto and Sunrise
to boil their water prior to consumption.
To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for
drinking, cooking, and ice making should be boiled and cooled prior to
consumption.  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, water system officials will notify you.
If you have questions regarding this matter, you may contact Mike McVea, Water
Superintendent at 972-441-6373 or 972-441-3222.
