The County Health Departments will issue a boil water order if the water supply is not safe to drink. It's best to use stored or bottled water for cooking, drinking and for your pets. Store water in a cool dark place. It is important to have one gallon of bottled water per person per day. If you choose to use tap water, take the following precautions:
• Remove particles by straining the water through a paper towel or cloth.
• To purify water do one of the following--or both if possible:
-- Boil at a rolling rate for at least three minutes.
-- Add 16 DROPS of regular household liquid bleach that contains 5.25 or 6.0 percent sodium hypochlorite as the active ingredient, to ONE GALLON of water.
-- Let stand for 30 minutes. If the water smells slightly of bleach, it is safe for use. If not, repeat the process. If the water still does not smell of bleach, discard it and find a different source of water. |
