 A precautionary boil water notice in effect Tuesday afternoon affects about 95,000 water connections in Hillsborough County.

Officials issued the advisory for much of south-central Hillsborough County following a decrease in water pressure — falling below 20 psi — earlier in the day. Although water service has been restored, people are advised to boil their water until the notice is lifted.

Instructions include the following:

  • Boil all tap water used for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth or washing dishes.
  • Bring water to a rolling boil for one minute and allow to cool before use.
  • Allow water to clear before washing clothes.
  • Discard any ice from automatic ice machines.

People who have questions about the notice are asked to call the county’s Water Resources Department at 813-744-5600.
