Affected residents are asked to:
- Immediately after your normal water pressure is restored, flush your internal plumbing until clear water flows from your water faucets.
- Boil water to be used for drinking, cooking and oral hygiene for three minutes prior to use.
It’s not necessary to boil water for other uses.
