Rescind Boil Water Notice BLDGs 237, 239, 312, 315, and 400 Published Dec. 9, 2014 By Bioenvironmental Engineering 82 AMDS/SGPB 9 December 2014 -- SUBJECT: Boil Water Rescind Notice for Sheppard AFB, Potable Water System (PWS) ID 2430007, Wichita Falls, Texas 1. On 08 December 2014, Sheppard AFB PWS issued a boil water notification for Bldg. 237, 239, 312, 315, and 400 Sheppard AFB, TX 76311 to comply with Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The notification was to inform the patrons of Bldg. 237, 239, 312, 315, and 400 that on 08 December 2014, PAE was required to turn off the water to perform routine maintenance. This caused the water pressure in the building to drop below 20 psi. (PAE 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. 237, 239, 312, 315, and 400 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 Capt Lindsay M. Kotouch or SrA Casey A. Mowatt at extension 676-3080.
