| Water customers in Pinehurst and Seven Lakes of the Moore County Public Utilities water system experienced a period of low water pressures on August 14 due extremely high usage. The pressures have been restored with water quality samples pulled. The sample testing will be complete tomorrow, August 16, with the advisory rescinded if the system pressures remain good.
It is recommended that you continue to cease lawn irrigation and use water conservatively until the advisory is lifted. Consumers are advised to flush their service piping then boil all water used for human consumption (including drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes and food preparation) or use bottled water. Vigorous boiling for one (1) minute should kill any disease-causing organisms that may be present in the water. Consumers will be advised when the water tests show the water is safe to
drink.
Water customers are strongly urged to conserve water whenever possible. This advisory remains in effect until further written notification is issued.
