OCALA, Fla. – The city of Ocala has lifted a boil-water notice it issued Thursday for customers at Pointe Grand at Heath Brook due to a damaged water main.
The water main was damaged by a contractor, the city said in a news release.
In an update Saturday, the city reported the notice was rescinded after no signs of bacteria were found for two days.
The City of Ocala Water Resources Department advises that the water is now safe to drink, cook with, and conduct all normal daily activities. The lines in the affected area were flushed, and several samples were collected. Tests show that the water has had no signs of bacteria for two consecutive days, and the chlorine residual meets regulatory standards.
