City of Hudson Oaks Issues Boil Water Notice for Hudson Oaks Public Water System

HUDSON OAKS, TX – During an ongoing construction project a contractor hit a main water line. Crews were unable to shut off the water eventually causing the water system pressure to drop below 20 pounds per square inch (psi). The water line break has now been repaired and pressure restored. The City of Hudson Oaks operates three separate public water systems, Hudson Oaks, Trinity River Estates and Dyegard. The boil notice is only in affect for the Hudson Oaks public water system.

Due to reduced distribution system pressure, Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has required the Hudson Oaks public water system (PWS: 1840006) to notify all customers to boil their water prior to consumption (e.g., washing hands/face, brushing teeth, drinking, etc). Children, seniors, and persons with weakened immune systems are particularly vulnerable to harmful bacteria, and all customers should follow these directions.

To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking, and ice making should be boiled and cooled prior to use for drinking water or human consumption purposes. The water should be brought to a vigorous rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes.

In lieu of boiling, individuals may purchase bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source for drinking water or human consumption purposes.

When it is no longer necessary to boil the water, the public water system officials will notify customers that the water is safe for drinking water or human consumption purposes.

Once the boil water notice is no longer in effect, the public water system will issue a notice to customers that rescinds the boil water notice in a manner similar to this notice.

Please share this information with all the other people who drink this water, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (for example, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses). You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copies by hand or mail.

If you have questions concerning this matter, you may contact Joshua Little, Public Works Director at joshua.little@hudsonoaks.com or (682) 803-1510.
