Here’s the full list– JEA told News4JAX that crews have been working since early Monday morning to repair a damaged water main on Old Kings Road.While crews work, Old Kings Road will be closed between Wabash Boulevard and Shannon Avenue, with detours in place as repairs are made, JEA said. According to JEA’s website, the advisory has not yet been issued, but here is what customers will need to know once it is: Customers should boil water used for drinking and food preparation or use bottled water for those purposes while the BWA is in effect. Water used for these purposes should be brought to a rolling boil for a minimum of one minute prior to use for drinking, food preparation, or cooking. In the event of a power outage, customers may disinfect water using common household bleach. Customers should only use common household bleach that has 5 to 6 percent active ingredients and only use food grade containers.Approximately eight drops of bleach should be added to one gallon of tap water, shaken, and allowed to stand for 30 minutes before drinking. If the water is cloudy, approximately sixteen drops of bleach should be added to one gallon of tap water, shaken, and allowed to stand for 30 minutes. There may be a slight chlorine odor and taste. Food should not be prepared with water that has not been boiled. Employees should have alternate means of washing their hands to ensure cleanliness before handling food instead of using water directly from a faucet. Restaurants should contact the Department of Health, Department of Environmental Protection, or Bureau of Hotels and Restaurants for further instruction. “We appreciate our customers’ patience as we work to make repairs,” A JEA spokesperson said in an email to News4JAX.A Jacksonville native and proud University of North Florida alum, Francine Frazier has been with News4Jax since 2014 after spending nine years at The Florida Times-Union.Florida court shuts down online gift card business based in Ponte Vedra, imposes over $800K in finesDNA test connects Clay County Navy veteran to WWII POW missing for over 80 yearsSt. Augustine replacing downtown parking kiosks with cashless touchscreensHundreds participate in Jacksonville ‘No Kings’ rally against Trump administrationFlagler College students protest housing policy as seniors cite affordability, availability concernsGAME DAY ⚾🦐 The defending Triple-A National Champion Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp returnShould an HOA or property management company be required to post parking rules for visitors?Fights erupt at Palatka Junior-Senior High after field trip focused on mental healthMother of teen punched during arrest says officer went too far⚾️ Opening Day + perfect weather=the ultimate Friday night in JaxStudy finds most ‘Mayport Shrimp’ dishes served in Jacksonville area are actually importedNew ‘larger format’ Publix store in SilverLeaf features wine bar, expanded deli menu, custom pizzas
