City residents given notice to boil water

The City of Clarendon has issued a boil water notice following a water line break Tuesday morning.

In notice published in this week’s Enterprise, residents are advised to boil their water prior to consumption.

To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking, and making ice should be boiled and cooled prior to use. The water should be brought to a vigorous, rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes. In lieu of boiling, purchase bottled water or obtain water from another source.

Once testing confirms the city’s water is safe, the Enterprise will update readers through ClarendonLive.com, Facebook, and Twitter.
