General Information
Boiled Water/Bottled Water Advisory Procedures
1. The plumber will immediately issue the Boiled
Water/Bottled Water Advisory to the school principal
during a water main break or any other temporary
disruption in water services that may cause the system
pressure to drop below 20 psi.
2. The plumber will then notify his Plumbing Supervisor
via phone of the Boiled Water/Bottled Water Advisory
alert. The Plumbing Supervisor will fill out a Bottled
Water report and will immediately call/fax Rick Ramirez,
Wastewater/Water Foreman, making him aware of the
situation.
3. During this time, the school principal will apply to
each drinking fountain in the affected areas a copy of
the Boiled Water/Bottled Water Advisory, which reads as
follows:
NOTICE, DO NOT DRINK!
The Duval County Public Health Unit, as a matter of
standard procedure, requires this advisory to schools
that have experienced a water main break or other
temporary disruption in water service that may cause the
system pressure to drop below 20 psi (pounds per square
inch). As a precautionary measure you are advised that
water used for drinking and food preparation be boiled
for at least three (3) minutes to assure its safety or
bottled water be provided until further notice.
The applicable water service area will be flushed,
sampling and testing will be done to ensure all drinking
water standards are met.
This advisory will be lifted by the Duval County Public
Health unit upon completion of a satisfactory
bacteriological survey.

copy of the completed Boiled Water Advisory Report to
the Duval County Public Health Unit. Once repairs have
