Raw Water Leak Repaired 💦
We’re happy to report that the raw water leak in Calvert City has been fully repaired, and all systems are back to normal.
A huge THANK YOU to our incredible residents and businesses for your patience and efforts in conserving water during this time—it truly made a difference.
We also want to give a special shout-out to the hardworking crews who worked around the clock to complete the repair. Your dedication doesn’t go unnoticed!💧
UPDATE 4/17/2025 - 11:50 AM
The leak in our raw water system is still under repair, and unfortunately, it’s not fixed just yet. We’re asking everyone to please continue conserving water today as work crews are doing everything they can to resolve the issue.
We know this is a rare situation, and we truly appreciate your patience (and your dry shampoo skills), just know—you’re not alone, and the end is near!
We’ll update you again as soon as the project is complete. Thank you for sticking with us and continuing to limit water use. Calvert City, you’re doing great!

Your cooperation helps ensure continued service and quick resolution. Thank you!

Updates will be made via Facebook and on our website as information changes.

🚨 Public Advisory Notice🚨
Due to a significant leak in our raw water supply, we are asking all Calvert City water users to voluntarily limit water usage over the next 48 hours while crews work to make repairs and the system recovers.
This is NOT a boil water advisory. The water remains safe to drink and use. However, conserving water is critical to allow the system time to rebuild its water supply after the repair is completed.
💧 Here are simple ways you can help: 💧
✅ Delay doing laundry and running dishwashers.
✅ Take shorter showers and turn off the water while shaving or brushing your teeth.
✅ Avoid washing vehicles or outdoor surfaces.
✅ Postpone filling swimming pools or hot tubs.
✅ Turn off irrigation systems or sprinklers.
✅ Fix any known leaks in your home promptly.
We 💦truly💦 appreciate your cooperation and understanding. Your help makes a big difference in keeping water service running smoothly for everyone. Updates will be provided as available.
