FWSC has been getting asked when the boil water notice will be rescinded.
In order for us to rescind the notice we are required to do the following per TCEQ:
1. Water Distribution Pressure has to be greater than 20 PSI
2. The distribution system has to be flushed and disinfectant residuals must consistently maintain 0.2 mg/L of free chlorine.
3. The residuals must be taken to the lab in Bastrop for testing.
4. Once we get the results back and they pass TCEQ requirements we will be able to rescind the notice. Until then please continue to boil all water used for consumption.
