Businesses, churches, schools, and other temporarily closed locations are reminded that water held unused in building pipes while businesses or activities are shut down becomes stagnant. Conditions may develop increasing the risk for the growth and spread of waterborne bacteria, such as Legionella or biofilm, in the piping. Disinfectant in the water, such as chlorine, will likely dissipate or become undetectable. Actions are necessary to ensure the water in the building is safe as well as taste and odor free before resumption of normal water use. The CDC has very detailed information on reactivating plumbing systems after dormant conditions on its website at: www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/php/building-water-system.html.
