Johnston County Water Shortage Advisory Lifted

SMITHFIELD – This afternoon, Johnston County Public Utilities has lifted the water shortage advisory issued that had been issued on Tuesday.

However, Johnston County Public Utilities wants to remind all customers of the County’s year-round mandatory conservation policy.

The policy allows for alternate day irrigation for irrigation systems and hose-end sprinklers based on the customer’s address. Odd number street addresses are allowed to water on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, while even number street addresses are allowed to water on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. No irrigation is allowed on Mondays. Pool filling days should correspond with allowed irrigation days.

  1. Might want to leave it in place until they figure out a way to supply water to all these new developments. There is a big reason that the county is desperately trying to find alternative water sources.

  2. Rationing of water. All of these new subdivisions shouldn’t hurt at all. Right Jocoproud?
