Boil Water Rescind Notice Windcreek Housing and Bldgs 127-135 Published Jan. 24, 2013 By A1C Daniel Austin Bioenvironmental Engineering Sheppard AFB Tx -- MEMORANDUM FOR EMPLOYEES AND PATRONS OF WINDCREEK HOUSING AND BLDGS 127-135 FROM: 82 AMDS/SGPB 149 Hart St. Bldg 1200 Sheppard AFB, TX 76311 SUBJECT: Boil Water Rescind Notice for Sheppard AFB, Potable Water System (PWS) ID 2430007, Wichita Falls, Texas 1. On 23 Jan 13, Sheppard AFB PWS issued a boil water notification for Windcreek housing and Bldgs 127-135, Sheppard AFB, TX 76311 to comply with Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The notification was to inform the patrons of Windcreek housing and Bldgs 127-135 that on 23 Jan 13, Defense Support Services (DS2) was required to turn off the water to perform maintenance. This caused the water pressure in the building to drop below 20 psi. (DS2 was able to conduct the required repairs and restore pressure above 20 psi). 2. In an effort to maintain the health and safety of the base population, the Bioenvironmental Engineering Flight collected representative water samples from Bldg 131 and 1413 Roden St, to determine the current state of the water quality. A state certified laboratory analyzed the samples and confirmed that the water supply to the building is safe to drink. 3. Our system took the necessary corrective actions to restore adequate pressure, disinfectant levels, and/or bacteriological quality and will provide TCEQ with testing results that indicate that the water no longer requires boiling. 4. We recognize being without water is a hardship and thank you for your patience while we resolved this issue. If you have any questions regarding the drinking water quality, please contact TSgt Holt or A1C Austin at extension 676-3080. LINDSAY M.
