A BOIL WATER NOTICE is a common alert. When this is issued you may experience: reduced distribution system pressure, line break, low disinfection residuals, discolored water, etc.
If a boil water notice is issued it is because the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has required PB & SC Water Supply to notify all customers to boil their water prior to consumption (e.g., washing hands/face, brushing teeth, drinking, etc.). Children, seniors, and persons with weakened immune systems are particularly vulnerable to harmful bacteria, and all customers should follow these directions.
To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking, and ice making should be boiled and cooled prior to use for drinking water or human consumption purposes. The water should be brought to a vigorous rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes.
In lieu of boiling, individuals may purchase bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source for drinking water human consumption purposes.
When it is no longer necessary to boil the water, the public water system officials will notify customers that the water is safe for drinking water or human consumption purposes.
Once the boil water notice is no longer in effect, the public water system will issue a notice to customers that rescinds the boil water notice in a manner similar to this notice.
If you have any questions concerning this matter, you contact PB & SC Water Supply at 936-377-4811..

Customers please be advised that a contractor has hit a main line. This will affect customers on well 3. You may experience little to no water until the repair is made. Barry is aware of the leak and will be making the repairs as soon as he can. Again, we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
