The Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality has issued a mandatory boil order for Rural Water District #3.

They say the order was issued due to E. coli in the drinking water.

DEQ recommends that water be boiled for one minute before use in food preparation, dishwashing and brushing teeth.

They say RWD #12 is also under a boil order since it purchases water from RWD #3.

This order only applies to those customers of Rogers Co. RWD #3 supplied by water from its consecutive connection to the City of Tulsa, covering an area east of Owasso and south of state Highway 20.
