(ROCKDALE)  5:36pm   Boil Water Notice for Community Public Water Systems

July 21, 2025    Due to the loss of system pressure in the low-pressure plane of the city’s distribution system, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has required the City of Rockdale (PWS1660002) public water system to issue a Boil Water Notice. All customers residing on Pecos from Brazos to Meadow must boil their water. It is also recommended that all lines be flushed to remove any sediment. 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Once the boil water notice is no longer in effect, the public water system will issue a notice to customers that rescinds the boil water notice in a manner similar to this notice.

If you have questions concerning this matter, you may contact Rockdale City Hall  at (512) 446-2511.
