Niagara states that the only affected products have codes that begin with the letter F (for Hamburg) or A (for Allentown). The first digit after the letter indicates the number of the production line. The next two numbers indicate the day, then the month in letters, the year, and then the time, based on a 24-hour clock.
Niagara is currently not using water from the spring that tested positive for E. Coli and as of this report, Niagra has not received any reports of illness connected to the recall.
In a document consumers can download, Niagara explains, “E. coli are bacteria whose presence indicates that the water may be contaminated with human or animal wastes. Microbes in these wastes can cause diarrhea, cramps, nausea, headaches, or other symptoms. They may pose a special health risk for infants, young children, some of the elderly and people with severely compromised immune systems.
Niagara advises consumers to boil their water first for one minute, or use other bottled water. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water.
For more information on this recall, contact Niagara Bottling, LLC Consumer Services at (877)487-7873.
