Now that the storm has passed and recovery is underway, there is a lot of information out there, and not all of it is reliable. Here are some sources that have been steadfast.

In this time of acute water need, mother nature has come to the rescue of many people looking for water, especially for flushing toilets. Our own backyard stream on the West Asheville Hill has provided ample water for many uses during this municipal water outage.
Plus, with the aid of an advanced water filter that removes bacteria, viruses and impurities, it's been easier and safer to wash dishes, and has even provided a potable drinking water option in a pinch. It's best to consume the highest quality drinking water you have access to, which is bottled water for most WNC residents right now, but our little stream has done quite the job at providing water during this tough time. With easy access just a few feet away, it's one of the factors that has allowed us to return to the business of supporting you with your technology. Is there a stream near you that could support your need for water? It's a question worth asking. |
