Due to a water line break, Prestonsburg City’s Utilities Commission has voluntarily issued a boil water advisory in the Little Paint area. This advisory includes all customers at the beginning Travis Branch along US23 up to Floyd/Johnson county line.  The advisory also includes any side roads and hollows between these points in the advisory.

This advisory is being issued as a precautionary measure. Once the leak has been repaired, water samples will be taken in the area of the line break and will be sent to a certified lab for analysis. However, until further notice, we advise customers in the affected area to boil their drinking water, bringing the water to a rolling boil for a least three (3) minutes.
