Bad Water On 30-a--health Hazard!

[Lady D]

It may not just be at one location. When you are staying only at one location you most likely are not going to find out about the problems with water at other locations. Unless you happen to hear it mentioned by someone. Anyway, my husband and I like I said, do not drink the water in the tap. We go to the store and get bottled water and keep it in the refrigerator and use it the whole week! But of course, we have to take a bath, which we do, which involves using the tap water then. We've never had any problems when down! Of course, we are just off of 30A but still Sowal county! So I do not know if it is the same water supplier. And I wonder, if and when they are doing any work on the water system, like the sewer, if that causes a back up of unhealthy things! I am sure it would!

I just called Regional Utilities. The area of concern, according to the lady I spoke to is, from Snapperhead's to Santa Rosa Beach and Golf Club. This would include both the north and south sides of 30-A. She also said she had a boil water reccomendation for Heron's Watch. Heron's Watch is located next to Old Florida Fish House which is a good bit further east than the other area.

So glad to get this alert....we have a special needs grandchild with an incurable disease who has just spent 2 weeks at our beach house in Eastern Lake area......we haven't gotten around yet to putting in our water (Culligan) system as we just got in the house last month, but after reading all this, think we will get it done asap....THANK YOU!

Adagio is east of the above post's area of concern reported by Reg. Utilities. :scratch:

FYI - You can get Giardia from brushing your teeth with contaminated water. ;-)

I was over at Blue Mtn on Friday and was told that Regional had been putting in new water lines in BMB..could this have caused the problem??

Yes, that is typically the problem. When the water lines are opened the water is possibly exposed to contamination.

Any further information on this? Does anyone know if the problem has been cleared up. We are staying at Adagio July 1-10 and would definitely like to avoid being sick on vacation.

Our rental management company told us that Regional Utilities put a flyer on the door of every residence/condo affected. I hope that's true.

Does anyone know who to contact regarding this situation. I called the Adagio management office and they acted like they never heard about this. When further pressed all they would say was that they got a clean bill of health. Maybe since this thread got started over a week and a half ago I shouldn't worry but I'd like to know what to expect. Last year it was Dennis I had to worry about. Now this year it's DIARRHEA! Gross!

To be on the safe side, just use bottled water while you're here...just pretend you're in Mexico--Ole!
