As the Birkenfeld district administration has announced, the boiling ban in force in parts of the district since August 7, 2025 can be lifted due to the current laboratory findings. The ban applied to twelve locations in the east of the Herrstein-Rhaunen municipality and in the Idar-Oberstein districts of Kirchenbollenbach, Mittelbollenbach and parts of Weierbach. This means that drinking water can now be used again without restrictions in all previously affected areas.
