From Paintsville Utilities,
Due to line maintenance, although no contamination has been confirmed, Paintsville Utilities has voluntarily issued a boil water advisory for the following areas:
For Rt. 689 Flat Gap starting at but not including Hall Branch to Little Laural but not including Little Laural and all hollows and side roads in between.
This advisory is being issued as a precautionary measure and is in effect until further notice.
Paintsville Utilities advises all customers in the affected areas to boil their water before using it for drinking, making ice, cooking, washing dishes, brushing teeth, or food preparation. Bring all water to a rolling boil, let it boil three minutes, then let it cool before using. Boiling kills bacteria and other organisms in the water.
