Due to a leak and water line break, the Texas Commission on Environmental

Quality (TCEQ) has required the City of Huxley water system PWS 2100019 to

notify customers of the need to boil their water in the Oakdale, New

Harmony, and Possum Trot areas prior to consumption.

 

To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for

drinking, cooking, and making ice should be boiled and cooled prior to use.

The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil and then boiled for

two minutes. In lieu of boiling, you may purchase bottled water or obtain

water from some other suitable source.

 

When it is no longer necessary to boil the water, the water system officials

will notify you that the water is safe for consumption. Instructions to

discontinue boiling will be issued in the same manner as this notice.

 

If you have questions concerning this matter, you may contact Huxley City

Hall at 936-368-2266 or Huxley Water Treatment Plant at 936-368-2633.
