Boiling water for a minimum of five minutes kills bacteria so the water is safe to drink. Most Public Water Supplies add chlorine for the same reason. Chlorine is a disinfectant/oxidizer. To protect our water supply from bacteria that may enter or develop in our system, we add chlorine and test it every day to ensure there is an adequate amount. See similar questions...

If the public water system becomes contaminated or a situation allows the possibility of contamination (such as a water main break or loss of system pressure), Charleston Water System will issue a Boil Water Advisory. The Department of Health and Environmental Control requires the issuance of a Boil Water Advisory under certain conditions, such as loss of system pressure. During an advisory, customers should bring water to a vigorous boil for at least one minute before use. See similar questions...

We issue such a notice when there has been large area of the distribution system (i.e. ? homes and businesses) that has lost all water pressure ? typically following a large main break. If the affected area is small we can restore water quality by flushing hydrants; but if the area is large we cannot do this effectively. In this circumstance we cannot guarantee the quality of the drinking water until the system is repressurized and we have completed testing. See similar questions...

Normally, no. Tap water has already been treated and is suitable for human consumption. However, if it is heard that the public network of water supply is contaminated with pathogenic germs then it is recommended to boil it before drinking. In small communities or individual systems where the water supply system is not taken care of or where the water provided has not received some treatment, it should be considered to boil the water before drinking it.

If these impurities do not get filtered away, you will be ingesting them. See similar questions...

Sorry, we're going to have to punt on this one. How long to water depends on several factors including your soil type, the water requirements of your plants, your climate and your available water. Knowing how and when to run your drip system is something that only you are in the best position to determine. Keep in mind that hot areas, gardens with sandy soils, and gardens with "thirsty" plants like annuals, veggies and some ornamentals will need longer and/or more frequent run times.
