Even though the risk is considered low, persons with compromised immune systems should use boiled or bottled water for drinking, food preparation or dental hygiene as a precautionary measure. Young children, pregnant women, elderly and people suffering from a serious illness are considered immune compromised.
The acceptable boiling or disinfection method is as follows:
1) Bring water to a rapid boil for at least one (1) minute.
Should someone other than the property owner occupy the residence (such as a tenant), please provide this information to them.
