The Arkansas Department of Health has issued a boil notice for a portion of Calico Rock Waterworks. The impacted area is from Arkansas Highway 5 to Garden Street on State Highway 56 East.The order has been issued as a precautionary measure because of the possibility contaminated water may have entered the distribution system following a loss in normal pressure. The loss of pressure is due to a water line break.

Under the boil order, all impacted customers are advised their water may be unsafe for human consumption. Water used for drinking or food preparation should be boiled briskly for one minute prior to use. All ice cubes should be discarded and only boiled water used for making ice.

The precautionary boil notice will remain in effect until the problem has been corrected, an adequate disinfectant level is established throughout the distribution system and a bacteriological survey shows the water is safe to drink.
