     WATER UTILITY SERVICE

     When will service be restored?

     Tropical Storm Helene severely damaged the production and distribution system of the City of Asheville’s water system. Extensive repairs are required to treatment facilities, underground and aboveground water pipes, and to roads that have washed away.

     That repair process has already begun and critical materials arrived at North Fork and Mills River on Tuesday (10/1) and are already being worked into the distribution system.

     Although providing a precise timeline is impossible, it is important to note that restoring service to the full system could potentially take weeks.
