The City of Austin has issued a citywide boil water notice. You should not drink the water without boiling it first. Please take advantage of bottled water or boil water you will be using for drinking, teeth-brushing or rinsing dishes.
It is important that you follow this guidance on and off campus until we hear more from Austin Water.
We realize this is a great inconvenience but these precautions are necessary in the wake of the central Texas flood situation. Your patience and cooperation are appreciated.

Please bring your UT ID to receive a free bottled water to supplement boiled water you bring from home.
