Falfurrias water boil notice has been lifted

UPDATE - MARCH 11, 2024

A boil water notice that was issued for the city of Falfurrias on Friday, March 8 has been lifted.

City officials announced the Boil Water Notice had been rescinded as of March 9, 2024.

The Boil Water Notice was issued due to an emergency main break that happened on March 7. City officials in Falfurrias said crews have taken action to restore the quality of the water and have provided TCEQ with laboratory tests documenting the necessary improvements.

ORIGINAL - MARCH 8, 2024

A water main break has led the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) to require the City of Falfurrias to issue a boil notice. Washing hands/face, brushing teeth, drinking, etc. should not take place without customers first boiling their water.

Public water system officials will notify customers when the water is safe for human consumption again.
