Please stand by for a message from the City of Asheville. This is Asheville Water Resources Public information Officer Clay Chandler with an update for our customers served by the Mills river treatment facility. City of Asheville Water Resources is asking customers served by the Mills River Treatment plant to conserve water as the facility expands water service into South Asheville. The facility has reached output of 5 million gallons per day. This should maintain water service for customers who have had it and should restore water service for customers who have not. It is extremely important to note that a boil water advisory remains in effect. If you plan to use water for drinking, cooking or any other form of ingestion, including brushing teeth, please boil it vigorously for a minimum of 1 minute beforehand. The water straight out of the tap is safe for bathing and washing dishes. The boil water advisory will remain in effect until water resources rescinds it. There currently is no timetable for that. As service returns, pressure may fluctuate and or air may be present in water lines. This could cause initial flow out of the tap to be sporadic. Conserving water does not mean you should use no water. Normal use, like flushing toilets, cooking and short showers should not cause the system to lose pressure. Large volume activities like filling bathtubs, long showers, watering landscaping, filling swimming pools, washing vehicles will drastically increase the likelihood of service disruption. Water resources thanks our customers for your patience while we repair the catastrophic damage Helene caused our system. Thank you. Press one to confirm receipt. Press two to replay this message.
