It's one of those things we can do! We can have water on hand! Even if we can't swing the $35 for the big blue barrels this month (Macey's or Emergency Essentials), maybe we can buy the 5 gallon barrels or use empty jars we have sitting around. Or easiest of all, we can buy the 16 oz bottles of water (Aqua Fina 16 oz, 24/case = 3 cases for $10 his week at Smith's). The point is - there's something that we can do to make life a little more comfortable for our family when things like this happen:
Contaminated water reported in Saratoga Springs
Updated: 05/13/2010 08:06:41 PM MDT
Saratoga Springs administrators have asked half the city to boil its water before drinking it because of a contaminant that could cause stomach and intestinal illness.
The warning was issued in a press release Thursday and delivered to residents and businesses on the north side of the city.
Residents, schools, businesses and users of culinary water located north of 400 South are being asked to participate. The release states water should be boiled for at least one minute before drinking.
The city is working to find and treat the source of the contamination, but the boil issue should remain in effect until further notice, the press release states.
