On August 10 the city of Killeen Water and Sewer Services issued a press release, determining that there will be a emergency water notice. Fort Hood Street from the block of  208 through 314 will be on a boiling water notice due to a broken line in the water line. The city of Killeen says that the water crews will have to isolate the main water, while the water crews remain on site until our repairs are complete and water services are restored.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR THE RESIDENTS IN KILLEEN?

The city of Killeen says that the water quality samples will be taken tomorrow morning with the following results being available 24 to 48 hours later, residents in the area will need to boil all water prior to consumption until the water sample results confirm that there is no contamination in the water source anymore.

HOW DO RESIDENTS STAY UPDATED WITH BOILING NOTICES?

If you are wanting to keep up on the public notice, it will be issued through the city of Killeen website and the boiling water hotline at 254-501-6515 when the notice will be lifted. We do apologize for the inconvenience, but it’s definitely better to be safe than sorry, so I truly suggest that residents please take the directions very seriously, and do the following instructions. Once the boiling notice is lifted, we will let our residents know as soon as possible.
