Gold Bridge Water System: Boil Water Advisory in Effect 

All users are advised to boil their water before using it for drinking, cooking, washing food, or brushing teeth, due to temporary transition to the back up water source (Sucker Creek).

The water can be made safe by boiling it for one minute at a rolling boil.  Boiled water should be stored in a clean container in the refrigerator.

Alternatively, bottled water can be used.

Gold Bridge water system users will be notified when the water is safe to drink.
