Boil Water Notice Issued In Beulah Area

December 14, 2018

A precautionary boil water noticed has been issued by the Emerald Coast Utilities Authority to customers located in the following area:

  • Beulah Rd. between Beulah Church Road and Mobile Highway
  • Twenty One Oaks Drive
  • Twenty One Oaks Lane
  • Tisdale Lane

This notice is being issued after repairs were made to a 6-inch broken water main.  Precautionary boil water notices are issued as a part of the standard protocol following any loss of water pressure, whether as a result of planned maintenance activities or unscheduled repairs.

Residents located in the specified PBWN area are advised to boil water for one minute at a rolling boil or to use eight drops of regular unscented household bleach per gallon of water, for water to be used for drinking or cooking purposes.  Two independent bacteriological samples have been initiated and the advisory will be lifted as soon as possible. This process routinely takes 48 hours.

ECUA crews completed the repairs to the main and have flushed out the lines.  Residents within the PBWN area and nearby are advised that there is a possibility of discolored water as a result of the utility work, and to flush their home’s plumbing by running their taps for a few minutes.  If problems persist, customers are asked to contact ECUA Customer Service at 850-476-0480 for assistance.  Precautionary boil water notice guidelines are available on the ECUA website at http://www.ecua.fl.gov/water-quality/boil-water-notices-and-why-we-issue-them
