Bolivar Peninsula Special Utility District Update on Water System for December 23, 2008 BOIL WATER NOTIFICATION Residents of the entire Peninsula are under a boil water notification until further notice. Once the boil water is lifted, residents will be notified on the website, by postings in town, and through the media. BILLING All customers that have water service restored to their homes and/or businesses will be billed for service on the 30th of that month. Some bills may be estimated and it will be indicated on the customer’s bill. Customers that are using water and have not yet applied for service should be advised that meters are being pulled at sites that have not yet signed up for service. If service is available in your subdivision and you would like service reinstatement, you are required to submit a new application form prior to using water. Once the meter is pulled it may take several days to have it re-installed. Please call the office at (409) 296-3475 if you have any questions. (Please see “Applying for Water Service” below.) DISTRICT HOLIDAY CLOSINGS The District office will be closed December 25-26, 2008 for Christmas and January 1, 2009 for New Year’s Day. CUSTOMER SERVICE INSPECTIONS All customers will be required to have a customer service inspection performed at their service location within sixty (60) days of service restoration. This is a State requirement that requires us to ensure that no lead solder is used in plumbing and that proper backflow prevention devices are in place where needed. For most residential customers, an atmospheric vacuum breaker (AVB) is required on each hose bib to prevent backflow to the water system. AVB’s can be purchased at any hardware store and they are available at the District office for $4.00 each. Please ensure that an AVB is installed on every hose bib at your home before the inspection is scheduled. After service is restored to your home, you will be contacted by District personnel to schedule the inspection. After the inspection is performed, you will be billed $50. (This fee includes $25 for the inspection and a $25 trip fee). Instead of having the District perform the customer service inspection, customers may prefer to use a licensed inspector of their choice and submit the required form to the District. If using someone other than District employees to perform the inspection, a copy of the inspector’s valid State license must be submitted with the inspection form to the District or it will not be accepted. Customers can look at the TCEQ’s website at http://www.tceq.state.tx.us/nav/main/business_licensing.html to find licensed inspectors in the area. REPORTING WATER LEAKS As we work to restore water service, valves are cracked open in areas and leaks are repaired. Should you see a water leak, please call the District office at (409) 296-3475. Signs with the District telephone number are located near the check point at Rollover Pass and near the District office in Crystal Beach. The District has a 24 hour answering service that will take a message and dispatch the information to District personnel. Your help in reporting leaks is appreciated! METER LOCATIONS WE NEED YOUR HELP! If you know where your water meter was located, please mark the location with a flag or sign. Flags are available in a bucket near the front door at the District office in Winnie and in a bucket near the front door at the District’s damaged office in Crystal Beach.
