Port St. Joe under Boil Water Notice

Water customers in the City of Port St. Joe, including Oak Grove, are under a boil water notice.

The boil water notice took effect on Monday morning.

The water company said there was an accidental loss of pressure in a water line that supplies drinking water.

Whenever that happens there is the potential for contamination, so as a precaution, the company is advising its customers to boil all water used for drinking or cooking. 

A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient to insure that the water is safe. 

The water company has sent a sample of the water for testing and the precautionary boil water notice will remain in effect until the lab results show the water is safe to drink.

If you have any questions you may contact Larry McClamma at the Water Department Office at 229-1421.
