\"\"The Florida Governmental Utility Authority (FGUA) has issued a Precautionary Boil Water Notice Advisory as of\u00a0Friday\u00a0(March 25th) at\u00a01:30 PM, due to a 12 inch water main break and affects customers residential and commercial located –\u00a0north and south of Lee Boulevard and specifically customers located on the part of Lee Boulevard that is west of Gunnery Road and includes Westminster Golf Club and along Leonard Boulevard and Westgate Boulevard and customers at Varsity Lakes on Gunnery Road.\u00a0Affected customers may have experienced low pressure and\/or no water.<\/p>\n

Crews are on site and have isolated the break.\u00a0 Repairs are estimated to take 1-4 hours. Once the water main has been repaired water samples will be collected and taken to a Florida Department of Health-certified\u00a0laboratory. Provided that the FGUA receives clearance for two rounds of water sampling results the FGUA will attempt to rescind the Advisory by\u00a0Tuesday,\u00a0March 29th, 2016.<\/p>\n

The FGUA provides a Boil Water Notice Advisory under Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) requirements in the event that water pressure drops below 20 pounds per square inch in the service area.\u00a0 In the meantime, the FGUA advises that all water used for drinking or cooked be boiled. A rolling boil for a period of one minute is sufficient to ensure the water is free of possible bacteria or viruses. Alternatively, bottled water may be used.<\/p>\n

For additional information or updates, FGUA customers may contact the FGUA Lehigh Acres Utility Systems Customer Service Office at\u00a0(239) 368-1615<\/a>, or visit the FGUA web site at\u00a0http:\/\/www.fgua.com\/outages-and-notices<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
