At this time the City’s sewer treatment plant is operating beyond capacity. Please limit your sewer discharge including toilets, washing machines, showers, dishwashers, etc. To avoid unnecessary additional damage to your property do not use bathroom or other facilities which may be located above the first floor of any building which may lead to sewage back-up.
Also, at this time the potable water supply system remains intact and the water is safe to drink. It is unlikely that the safe condition of the water will change unless a prolonged power outage of 48 hours or longer is experienced.
This notice is from the City of Bellaire.
