The City of Cape Coral added a third active precautionary boil water area near 142 SE 15th Place after a water main break Wednesday morning.
The city's live water notice map identifies drinking water as affected and carries no rescission date. The new record was posted at about 6:37 a.m.
What residents near SE 15th Place should do
Bring tap water to a rolling boil for one minute before using it for drinking, cooking or other consumption. Bottled water is an alternative.
Cape Coral says a precautionary notice does not always mean the water is contaminated. The notice stays in place until the city posts a rescission.
The city publishes a mapped boundary rather than a street list or household count. Anyone near 142 SE 15th Place should check the map to see whether the notice covers the property.
Where Cape Coral's other boil water notices remain active
The city map also shows active areas near 1829 SE 21st Terrace and 715 SE 34th Street. All three appear on the Cape Coral local news page.
