Sud Bottle Water Update – January 28, 2026 @ 3:10 PM

🚨SUD Water update 1/28/26 11:31am🚨

Silerton: all relevant stations have power returned to them, and as of 10:30 water was beginning to be restored as far up to Hughes Road. We still do not have an estimated time, but it is making progress.

Guys/ Chewalla/ Hornsby/ Pocahontas: all stations are running, but due to the large area and demand the pressures are still extremely low.

Pebble hill: still no power at the booted station

We asked the community to please keep an eye out for all possible leaks and busted pipes. As temperatures reach above freezing, we ask for those who do have water to try and conserve as much as possible in order to boost pressure for those who do not.

We extend our gratitude to PEC and all linemen that have restored power to our treatment plants and stations.

If you have questions about our bottled water delivery or any other utility concerns, please call our main office at (731) 645-7928 and press 3 to speak with a local SUD representative.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. 💧
