The Jonesborough Utility crews worked through the night to get water turned back on to customers north of the Nolichucky river. The boil water notice is still in effect for those that had water restored earlier this morning. As of last night, at 1 am, we turned approximately 7000 customers back on and as of this morning we only have approximately 600 people without water. The area without water including Highway 107, all connecting roads on Highway 107 and 81 south from Taylor Bridge heading towards Erwin including Bumpus Cove and Little Germany.

We are assessing the damage and getting a plan together for the affected areas. We should have an update tomorrow.

The water treatment plant and waste water facility are both completely operational.
