Questions about water notices

What does a boil water notice mean?

Bring water to a rolling boil for at least one minute before drinking, cooking, brushing teeth or making ice. It is a precaution issued whenever pressure drops far enough that contamination cannot be ruled out until samples come back clear.

How do I know when a boil notice is lifted?

A notice stays in effect until the system has taken samples and every test comes back clear — usually about two days. The lift is posted here and sent straight to anyone signed up for alerts.

Who do I call about a leak or loss of water?

City Hall, (731) 239-3680, Monday to Friday 8:00am–4:30pm. Report standing water in the road or a sudden pressure drop as soon as you see it — most leaks are spotted by residents before crews find them.

Why did my water come back dirty or cloudy?

Cloudy water after a repair is usually air or sediment stirred up when pressure returns. Run a cold tap for a few minutes. If it has not cleared, call City Hall.

What a notice covers

Notices name the roads and areas affected, not the whole town. If your road is not listed, your water is not under the notice — but if you are unsure, call and ask.
