In Wolfe City, many homes and businesses do not have water service as of Monday afternoon. Furthermore, a boil water notice is in effect for those who do have water service.
On Sunday, local officials announced the implementation of a boil water notice to remain in effect until the city announces the discontinuation of the notice. A release from municipal government said the boil notice was the result of repairs to a water line.
Later on Sunday, city officials announced that the city’s well has pump and motor damage as a result of the February winter storm, and that customers could experience an interruption of service. The release said that repair efforts were being delayed due to lack of unspecified supplies.
