Jones County Regional Water System: System Pressure Advisory

See this content in the original post

Jones County NC posted the following on their Facebook page:

The water consumers of Jones County Regional Water System, in Jones County on Caswell Station Rd. and British Rd. including all side roads will be experiencing periods of low pressure and outages in the distribution system starting on July 19th, 2022 due to waterline construction. Periods of low or no pressure in the distribution system increases the potential for back siphonage and introduction of bacteria into the water system.

Therefore, when water service is restored, consumers are advise to boil all water for human consumption (including drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes and food preparation) or use bottled water.

Vigorous boiling for (1) minute should kill any disease-causing organisms that may be present in the water.

Water consumers are strongly urged to conserve water whenever possible. This advisory remains in effect until further written notification is issued.

This advisory issued on 7/18/22 by:

Gareth Harvell
Supervisor
Jones county Regional Water System
(252) 448-8000
