UPDATE: Friday, 4:00 p.m. - The boil water notice that was issued on June 12 was officially lifted after testing by the TCEQ. The City of Beeville has taken the necessary corrective actions to restore the quality of the water. Boiling is no longer required.
ORIGINAL STORY:
Residents of Beeville are under a boil water notice after a significant water main break occurred Thursday morning near the airport.
The break involved a 24-inch transmission line that caused some nearby residents to temporarily lose water service.
While repairs have been completed, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) requires the city to issue a boil water notice due to a drop in water pressure.
All water used for cooking, drinking or washing must be boiled before use until further notice.
The boil water notice will remain in effect until water quality tests are approved by the TCEQ.
