OCTOBER 7, 2024
Due to a WATER MAIN BREAK causing the water PSI on the line to reach 0 PSI, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has required our water system for the CITY OF WELLS ID# 0370004 to notify customers of the need to boil their water before consumption.
This boil water notice will affect the following streets in the city limits of Wells:
Only customers living on the following streets:
Forst Rd, Booker St, Warren Rd, West Side of Highway 69 from W First Street to 0.2 Miles past the city limits.
To ensure the destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking, and making ice should be boiled and cooled before use. The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes. In lieu of boiling, you may purchase bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source.
When it is no longer necessary to boil the water, the water system officials will notify you that the water is safe for consumption. Instructions to discontinue boiling will be issued in the same manner as this notice.
If you have questions concerning this matter, you may contact Operator: Roy Shanks (936) 212-3220 or City Hall at (936) 867-4615.
