Mt Mitchell Sub 275 Repair and BWA

Customers:  S Toe River Road (34)

This is a courtesy message from Carolina Water Service Inc. of North Carolina, your local water provider for the Mt. Mitchell community at 1-800-525-7990.   

Customers will experience outages in the distribution system due to an emergency repair in your area.  Repairs should be underway soon once we identify the leak and water should be restored as quickly as possible within the next few hours, barring any complications.  Periods of low or no pressure in the distribution system increase the potential for back siphonage and the introduction of bacteria into the water system.  

As a precautionary measure, once water is restored consumers boil all water used for human consumption (including, drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation). As an alternative, bottled water may be used.  The NC Division of Water Resources Public Water Supply Section has been contacted concerning this event.

Vigorous boiling for one minute should kill any disease-causing organisms that may be present in the water.    

This office is strongly urging water consumers to conserve water whenever possible.  Customers will be notified by a second phone notification message once the Boil Advisory has been rescinded.

This was a courtesy message from Carolina Water Service Inc. of North Carolina.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience.  If you should have any questions or concerns, please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-800-525-7990.

Thank you.
