Water Troubles in Upper Franconian Communities
Polluted water sources identified in two Franconian towns - Polluted water discovered in two municipalities within Upper Franconia region
Here's the skinny: Due to some unpleasant bacterial contamination, residents of certain areas in Regnitzlosau and Rehau, Franconia need to boil their tap water for now, according to a spokesperson from the Hof district office.
Check out these places where the boil water warning is in effect:
- Rehau: Dobeneck, Timpermühle, Ludwigsbrunn, Sigmundsgrün, and Faßmannsreuth
- Regnitzlosau: Prex, Kirchbrünnlein, Oberprex, Oberzech, Mittelhammer, Hinterprex, and Schanz
The health department suggests that you should only quaff boiled water, heating it to a rolling boil for a damn minute and letting it cool gradually for at least ten minutes.
When it comes to cooking, brushing those pearly whites, and cleansing open wounds, stick to boiled tap water for the time being. The good news is, authorities will keep y'all posted when this advisory gets lifted.
Remember, the situation can evolve rapidly, so stay tuned to local news or official government channels from Upper Franconia for the latest information about the water quality.
