CROWLEY, Texas – There is a boil water notice in place in Crowley because of a water main break that caused the water supply to residents to drop to critical levels.<\/p>\n
What we know:<\/p>\n
The problems began following a water main break along East Main Street.\u00a0<\/p>\n
City crews and private contractors worked overnight and on Wednesday morning to repair it.<\/p>\n
Some residents were without water or had to deal with low water pressure until the repairs were completed just after 11 a.m.<\/p>\n
Residents were also asked to conserve water and avoid things like washing their cars or watering their lawns.<\/p>\n

What they’re saying:<\/p>\n
Homeowner Shelia Mitchell was affected for a short time.<\/p>\n
“This morning, I woke up this morning and went to go turn on the water and there was no water,” she said. “I actually made a phone call and the city of Crowley advised that the water main had broke. I was able to leave home and come back and I had water.”<\/p>\n
What’s next:<\/p>\n
The boil water notice was directed by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. It\u2019s a precaution to avoid possible contamination as the city\u2019s storage tanks are being refilled and have returned to normal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It\u2019s in effect until further notice and applies to anyone whose water bill comes from the city. That\u2019s just under 8,000 customers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Those customers can also drink or consume bottled water if they don\u2019t want to boil their water.<\/p>\n
