Palm Bay puts more neighborhoods under a boil-water notice after a Friday main break

First reported by WESH and WFTV. Palm Bay Utilities customers on parts of Hollow Brook Lane, Brookshire Circle, Corey Road and nearby streets are under a new precautionary boil-water notice after a water main break Friday afternoon, according to a city utilities news release quoted by those outlets and confirmed in a Brevard Emergency Operations Center update.

The City of Palm Bay said water service to the listed addresses was shut off around 2:30 p.m. Friday and was expected to be restored later the same day. Until the city lifts the notice — after repairs and bacteriological testing show the water is safe — the utilities department advises bringing water to a rolling boil for one minute before drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth or washing dishes, or using bottled water instead. Questions: Palm Bay Utilities at 321-952-3410, or after-hours 321-952-3478.

Addresses listed in the release include ranges on Hollow Brook Ln, Brookshire Cir, Oak Tree Pl, Falls Trl, Holloway Trl, Steeplechase Cir, Briar Run Cir, Pemberton Trl, Absaroka Ln, Nome Ln, Sitka Ln, Barrow Ln, Knave Ln, Country Cove Cir, Oak Harbour Ln and Corey Rd. This is a separate notice from the earlier Port Malabar Boulevard NE main-break boil-water notice still affecting a short list of streets; see our Port Malabar water story.
