Water service has been restored to the areas that were affected.

We are highly encouraging homeowners, landlords, and businesses to check and monitor their meters and lines over the next few days as most of the leaks found are on the homeowner's side of the meter. Report any leaks and any areas of water that could possibly be leaks to Chuckey Utility District immediately.

The after-hours emergency number is 423-636-6905.

If improvement continues overnight and water testing is confirmed to be good, we anticipate the lifting of the “boil water” notice that’s been in place. Decision and announcement expected prior to 12pm, 12-31-22.
