The boil water notice for the users of Flagler County’s Plantation Bay water system has been rescinded, effective immediately.

“We are pleased to report that the problem has been corrected,” said General Service Director Heidi Petito. “It is no longer necessary to boil your water.”

The notice was issued Monday, June 15, after E. coli bacteria was detected in one of the wells, which was shut down until the issue could be resolved.

The Plantation Bay drinking water system has collected two consecutive days of additional total coliform bacteria samples from the treatment plant and distribution system, all test results were negative for total coliform and E. coli.
