Precautionary Boil Water Notice in Effect for Lake Marie Estates Area in DeBary

Posted On: September 24, 2026

A precautionary boil water notice is in effect for Volusia County Water Utility customers in the Lake Marie Estates community in DeBary following a water main break caused by a private contractor.

The contractor, which is not affiliated with Volusia County or the City of DeBary, struck and damaged a water main serving the community. Volusia County utility crews responded to the break and are working to address the issue.

As a precaution, affected customers should boil water intended for drinking, cooking, making ice, brushing teeth, or washing dishes before use. A rolling boil of one minute is sufficient. Customers should also discard any ice produced by automatic ice makers. Alternatively, bottled water may be used.

Per regulatory requirements, the County will conduct bacteriological testing to confirm that the water is safe to drink. Volusia County will provide updates as additional information becomes available and will notify customers when the precautionary boil water notice has been lifted.
