Water treated that way also can be used for cooking. Water not disinfected can still be used for showering or flushing toilets, West said.

The county water system, which serves unincorporated areas, escaped the boil-water regimen Monday. The system's large size, incorporating four major water plants, helps it shift enough water around to avert potential pressure drops in areas with breaks, said Larry Johnson, a county Water Utilities Department engineer and construction services manager. That force of clean, treated water moving through lines creates enough positive pressure to prevent contaminants from seeping through pipe cracks and gaps with ground or surface water. But the unincorporated area's situation could change, Johnson said. "We are asking everyone to conserve water as much as possible," he said.

"Otherwise we will not be able to maintain the pressure and may have to issue a boil-water order as well." Boca Raton, which had drinkable tap water, was struggling Monday to maintain that. "We're hanging in there by the skin of our teeth," said Robin Easterling, city water plant worker. "We have many breaks." Boynton Beach was racing to find and plug a slew of water line leaks to keep from go- Florida City Extent of hurricane-force winds (Over 100 mph) Covered the entire metropolitan areas of Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties. ing to boiling water, said Peter Mazzella, deputy utilities director. He said uprooted trees tipping over and tearing up individual service lines to homes had a lot to do with that.

"You've got hundreds of little leaks out there," he said. "In the meantime, we're losing millions of gallons of water." Both of Boynton's plants were running on generator power. "We're holding our own," he said. West Palm Beach lost water service for 1 10,000 residents earlier in the day. The city had line breaks in at least 1 5 locations, but water service, at less than optimal pressure, was restored to many residents, city spokeswoman Margie Yansura said.
