Lewisville issues boil water notice after water line break

The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has mandated that residents in parts of Lewisville boil their water before consumption following a 30-inch water line break, the City of Lewisville announced Sunday morning.

All customers in the affected area are advised to boil water before using it for drinking, cooking, brushing teeth, or washing their hands and face. Vulnerable populations, such as children, seniors, and individuals with weakened immune systems, are at higher risk from harmful bacteria and should take extra precautions.

To ensure safety, water should be brought to a vigorous rolling boil for at least two minutes, then cooled before use. As an alternative, residents may use bottled water or obtain water from another safe source.

A boil water notice normally lasts 24 to 48 hours due to the time needed to repair the leak, flush the lines, and collect and test water samples. The city will notify residents when the boil water notice is lifted and the water is safe for consumption.

Residents are encouraged to share this information with others who may not have received it directly, such as those in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses. Posting notices in common areas or distributing copies by hand or mail is recommended.

For questions, residents can contact the Public Services Department at 972-219-3510.
