SECWSC 308 Well - Boil Water Notice
June 08, 2026
South Ellis County WSC
Boil Water Notice for Community Public Water Systems 06/08/26
Due to low distribution pressure and water outage, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has required the South Ellis County public water system to notify all customers on FM 308 North, Thunder Rd, Sevier Rd, Derrs Chapel Rd, Shorty Ln, Dale Acres Rd, Carolyn Rd, Brandi Ln, and Pluto Rd to boil their water prior to consumption (e.g., washing hands/face, brushing teeth, drinking, etc.)
To ensure destruction of all harmful bacteria and other microbes, water for drinking, cooking, and ice making should be boiled and cooled prior to use for drinking water or human consumption purposes. The water should be brought to a vigorous rolling boil and then boiled for two minutes.
Once the boil water notice is no longer in effect, the public water system will issue a notice to customers that rescinds the boil water notice in a manner similar to this notice.
If you have questions concerning this matter, you may contact our office at 972.483.6885.

Subject: Update on Water Service for 308 Well
Dear Customers of 308 Well,
We are currently addressing a significant water leak on FM 308. Our team is actively working on the repairs, and during this time, you may be experiencing a temporary water outage. We are diligently working on the repairs as swiftly as possible.
In addition, the pump for the Pluto well has failed. We have ordered a replacement and anticipate receiving and installing it within the next 48 to 72 hours. Meanwhile, if you are served by the 308 well, you may notice reduced water pressure. We kindly ask all customers on the 308 well to conserve water until the new pump is installed. We understand this situation is inconvenient and sincerely apologize for the disruption.
We are committed to resolving these issues promptly and will keep you informed of our progress.
Thank you for your understanding and patience.
Best regards,
SECWSC
