INDIAN RIVER COUNTY — More than 30 county water utility customers will be without water for approximately five hours Tuesday, May 25, starting at about 8 a.m., water officials said.
The water outage is needed in the area of 19th Avenue and 3rd Street for crews to replace a water valve.
Upon restoration of water service, the Indian River County Utilities Department advises that all water used for the following be boiled (a rolling boil of one minute is sufficient):
