The utility suggests customers boil water for at least three minutes. Use it only for drinking water, brushing teeth and for preparing food.
Customers should not use ice from an automatic ice maker or any ice made from unboiled water.
Disinfect dishes and other food contact surface areas for at least one minute in clean tap water that contains one teaspoon of bleach per gallon of water.
Water used for hand-washing or bathing doesn’t typically need to be boiled.
