The boil order is to ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes. Inadequately treated water may contain disease-causing organisms. These organisms include bacteria, viruses, and parasites which can cause symptoms such as nausea, cramps, diarrhea, and associated headaches.

TCEQ advises water should be brought to a vigorous rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes.

In lieu of boiling, use bottled water or obtain water from some other suitable source.
