(August 23, 2023) – LaBelle, Fla. – Water service will be temporarily shut off for all residents within the Port LaBelle Utility System service area at 12am (midnight) August 23, 2023.

This is necessary due to an emergency repair to the system. The work is estimated to last from 2 to 5 hours.

Due to the shut off, Port LaBelle Utilities users will be placed under a precautionary boil water notice when the water service is restored.

The precautionary boil water notice will be lifted when satisfactory bacteriological sampling results are obtained. The boil water notice is anticipated to be in effect for 4 days.

A boil water notice does not mean the water is contaminated. As a precaution, it is advised to boil the water for 1 minute before consumption.
