Urgent: Bartlett City Residents Advised to Boil Water Due to Line Break in Public System

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has issued a warning for Bartlett City due to a line break in the public water system. Customers are advised to boil their water before use to eliminate harmful bacteria and microbes. This applies to water used for drinking, cooking, and ice making. Boil the water for two minutes and cool it before use.

This warning is crucial for children, seniors, and individuals with weakened immune systems who are more vulnerable to bacteria. Residents can also choose to buy bottled water or get water from another safe source for consumption.

Officials will inform customers when boiling water is no longer necessary and it is safe to drink. The warning will be lifted in the same way it was issued.

Residents should share this information with others who may not have received the warning, such as those in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses. This can be done by posting the warning in a public place or distributing copies.

For questions, residents can contact Stephan Pustejovsky, the Superintendent, at Stephan.Pustejovsky@bartlett-tx.us. This warning is a precaution to ensure the health and safety of all Bartlett City residents.
