Boil water notice in effect for Eastpoint

There is a boil water notice in effect for Eastpoint residents today.

The Eastpoint Water and Sewer Department said an electrical failure Tuesday night reduced pressure in the system which requires a boil water notice until the water can be tested for bacteria.

Any water used for drinking or cooking should be brought to a rolling boil for one minute.

The precautionary boil water notice will remain in effect until the tests on water samples show the water is safe to drink.

The water department said they hope water sample results will be returned on Friday.

If you have any questions, you call the Eastpoint Water and Sewer District at 670-8177.
