Emerald Coast Utilities Authority.

Effective immediately, the Emerald Coast Utilities Authority is issuing a system-wide Precautionary Boil Water Notice -PBWN- to its water system customers. This notice is in response to the significant and wide-spread damages sustained from Hurricane Sally. ECUA crews are already out in the field working to locate, isolate, and repair main breaks in order to restore service as quickly as possible. Although the majority of our customers remain in service, there are too many main breaks that require a PBWN for it to be practical to issue separate notices during this initial emergency response. Once the number of pending repairs is significantly reduced, the ECUA will revert to issuing separate notices for individual areas. We ask for our customers’ patience and understanding as we work to repair hundreds of breaks, giving priority to our hospitals, dialysis centers, and other critical care facilities.
Residents are advised to boil water for one minute at a rolling boil or to use 8 drops of regular unscented household bleach per gallon of water, for water to be used for drinking or cooking purposes.
More information on precautionary boil water notice and key guidelines are available on the ECUA website at ecua.fl.gov/live-green/our-water-supply
Thursday & Friday collections will both be picked up on Saturday.
The Water Reclamation Plant on Pensacola Beach is back online. Our crews are working to locate, isolate, and repair water and sewer main breaks on the beach in order to fully restore services. The system-wide precautionary boil water notice will apply to Pensacola Beach once water service is restored.
The ECUA phone line is down. Please use the Citizen Information Center at 850-471-6600.

Generator Safety Tips and Precautions

It is important that generators be operated properly. Do not operate gas generators indoors because of carbon monoxide. Please follow this link for more information and to learn the dangers of carbon monoxide.http://www.floridahealth.gov/newsroom/2020/09/091520-carbon-monoxide-dangers.pr.html
Do not drive or walk through standing water. Power lines could be down and cause electrocution.
Do not attempt to move downed power lines. Please contact Gulf Power at 1-800-GU-POWER (1-800-487-6937)
Unless you are in a life-threatening situation, please shelter in place and do not venture out.

Chain Saw Safety

Become familiar with the recommended safe operational procedures before attempting to work with a chain saw.
Be sure that you are in top physical and mental condition when operating dangerous machinery. Medications and alcohol can cause you to be a hazard to yourself and others when working with chain saws.
Equip yourself with protective clothing and equipment including safety goggles, hearing protection, steel-toed shoes, hard hat, gloves, and close-fitting clothing.
Never make cuts with the saw between your legs; always cut with the saw to the outside of your legs.
Don’t stand on a log and saw between your feet.
Always stand to one side of the limb you are cutting; never straddle it.
Always keep in mind where the chain will go if it breaks; never position yourself or other people in line with the chain.
Keep the chain out of the dirt; debris will fly.

Storm Debris Burning

Burning large debris left from a hurricane can be dangerous. Many residents open windows to get air circulation in their homes due to power outages, and burning large trees and limbs as well as other debris, creates large amounts of smoke which can travel into homes.
Burning insulation and roofing creates very toxic smoke.
Burning large trees and limbs and branches can also create sparks that go airborne and land on your home.
Burn laws are still in place before, during, and after a hurricane. Know your local burn ordinance.
Children should never be allowed to burn debris and should leave any type of burning to an adult.

Tips on choosing a contractor:

No permitting is required for emergency storm repairs. Emergency repairs are for achieving a basic level of safety for occupancy of a structure.

Ask to see their license and call the appropriate licensing agency – Escambia County Contractor Licensing Section for a county license or DBPR for state license to verify the status and insurance.
Contractor Search
Ask for and verify references from past customers.
Check with the local Better Business Bureau.
Get a written estimate from several licensed contractors. Be sure that the estimate includes all work to be done by the contractor, the materials involved, date of completion and the total cost.
Don't simply take the lowest bid. An abnormally low bid could lead to trouble later on.
If the project is for repairing damage, check with your insurance company before you sign a contractor to verify that your insurance will cover the repairs.
An occupational license is not sufficient in the construction trades.
Beware of alleged contractors who ask to be paid in cash or ask for large payments up front.
