"Tyler City Implements Boil-Water Notice Amid E. Coli Concerns"

The City of Tyler in Texas has issued a boil-water notice for its customers after routine samples showed the presence of e. coli and total coliform at a single site. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has mandated that water for consumption, including drinking, cooking, and brushing teeth, should be boiled and cooled before use. Children, seniors, and those with weakened immune systems are particularly vulnerable. The city is taking measures to address the issue and will rescind the notice once water samples test negative for harmful bacteria.
