A precautionary boil water advisory will be in effect starting at 9 p.m. Tuesday, November 4, in the Myrtle Grove area.
CFPUA is issuing the advisory due to work being completed on the water distribution system in the area.
Approximately 75 CFPUA customers will be impacted at the following addresses:
- 5416 through 6100 Myrtle Grove Road
- 5101 Peden Point Road
- All of Sapphire Ridge Road
- All of Tall Ship Lane
- All of Tall Mast Court
- All of Marsh Cove Lane
- All of Avalon Avenue
- All of Caribe Court
This notice will be updated when the advisory is lifted.
Periods of low or no pressure in the water distribution system increase the potential for back siphonage and introduction of bacteria into the water system.
When under a boil water advisory, customers are asked to boil their water for one minute, then allow it to cool prior to consumption. Alternatively, they may use another water source such as bottled water.
Consumption includes drinking, brushing teeth, making ice, food preparation, fruit and vegetable washing, pet consumption, and the preparation of baby formula. Customers do NOT need to boil water prior to using it for showering or bathing.
Before a boil water advisory is lifted, CFPUA lab staff test the water to ensure it is safe to drink.
