Lawrenceburg Utility Systems is actively working to maintain the safety of the water supply, which has been impacted by the recent draining of the lake at Crockett Park into Shoal Creek. Residents have expressed concerns regarding changes in both the smell and taste of their water. While both Shoal Creek and Hope Spring serve as vital sources of drinking water for the community, relying solely on Hope Spring does not provide sufficient supply to meet the needs of all customers.
In response to these concerns, the utility company has assured the public that water is undergoing regular treatment and testing. They emphasize that all water entering the distribution system meets safety standards for consumption and use. Additionally, crews are engaged in flushing the lines to expedite the return to normal water quality. The utility remains committed to ensuring that residents have access to safe and reliable drinking water.
