WARNER ROBINS, GA – In order to protect the public from a potential health hazard, a number of Warner Robins Utilities customers are advised to “boil” all water prior to use. A 12” Houston County water main break is causing water pressure in parts of the water system to drop to low levels. When this occurs a potential health hazard may exist in these areas of zero pressure from backflow and/or back-siphonage of water of unknown quality into the water distribution system.
In order to protect the public from a potential health hazard, all citizens that have experienced water outages and/or low water pressures are advised to “boil” all water prior to use for drinking, cooking, or preparing baby food. The water should be boiled for at least one minute after reaching a rolling boil. Citizens should continue to boil their water until they are notified by their drinking water utilities department that the water system has been restored to full operation and that the microbiological quality of the water in the distribution system is safe for human consumption. (APPROXIMATELY 24 HOURS).
City of Warner Robins subdivisions included in the boil advisory are:
• Sandy Springs
• Chadwyck
• Alantown
• Peach Blossom Ter.
• Kenstshire
• Bridlewood
Below is the area currently affected by the boil advisory in the City of Warner Robins.
