The boil water advisory by the City of Howe has been lifted and the water is now safe for consumption effective at 8:15 a.m. on November 27, 2014.

Notice by Mayor Jeff Stanley:

Our system has taken the necessary corrective actions to restore adequate pressure,
disinfectant levels, and/or bacteriological quality and has provided TCEQ with testing
results that indicate that the water no longer requires boiling as of 8:30am November
