All other properties must continue to boil water for consumption.
A boil water notice was issued February 17 for all properties in Killeen. The boil order is lifted effective immediately for the following schools:
• High Schools: Ellison, Killeen and Shoemaker
• Middle Schools: Liberty Hill, Patterson and Rancier
• Elementary Schools: Brookhaven, Cedar Valley, Fowler, Hay Branch, Iduma, Peebles, Pershing Park, Sugar Loaf and Trimmier
• Other Campuses: Career Center and Pathways
All other properties must continue to boil until further notice. Water quality samples have been submitted for these properties, and testing should be completed overnight. Results will be announced as soon as received.
Extreme weather conditions caused a loss of water pressure and service throughout the city, which necessitated the city-wide boil order.
