Time Issued: 8:22 am

N/C #: 2523403

A Boil Water Advisory is in effect for the following customers: Beginning at HWY 40 and KY 3 connector bridge in Inez to the Little Country Market at 4098 Rockcastle Road. This will include all hollows and sub-hollows along this route. These locations are in Martin County, Kentucky.

This Advisory has been issued due to the following reason: a break in a main line. This affects approximately 200 customers.

Following such an event, the potential exists for bacteriological contamination of the water supply; therefore, this boil water advisory has been issued as a precautionary measure. Until further notice, boil all water used for drinking and cooking, bringing the water to a rolling boil for three (3) minutes before using.

This advisory will remain in effect until the situation has been corrected, and test results have shown the water to be of an acceptable quality.
