Cocoa Water Gets Mainland Communities Back Up – Barrier Islands, Beaches Still Without Water

BREVARD COUNTY • COCOA, FLORIDA – The Cocoa Utilities Department reported Monday night it has established interim pressure for customers on the mainland to include Port St. John, Cocoa, Rockledge, Viera and Suntree.

“As crews continue to identify breaks and test system integrity, customers may see potential pressure fluctuations and this is normal,” said City of Cocoa Public Relations Specialist Samantha Senger.

“Barrier Islands to include Merritt Island, Cape Canaveral, Cocoa Beach, Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, and Patrick Air Force Base do not have water pressure at this time.”

Senger said crews are continuing to work toward establishing normal system pressures as quickly as possible, and stressed the entire Cocoa utility system is still under a Precautionary Boil Water Notice.
