HUNTSVILLE, Utah, Dec. 14, 2024 (Gephardt Daily) — Officials have turned off Huntsville’s water system after being unable to find the leak draining the town’s water supply.

“Here is an update of our water system,” a social media notice says. “We are still unable to find the leak and the water is shut off. We still don’t know how long this will last but have some contingency plans for the availability of water.

“Eden Water system is generously providing potable (drinking) water for us. As described earlier, this will be available at the west parking lot at the LDS stake center, 6500 E. 1900 North, in Eden.”

Water will be available today, Saturday, until 9 p.m., the statement says. Visitors must bring their own water containers to fill.

“Please check on your neighbors, especially those who would have difficulty getting their own water. For those, we have bottled water in front of the new town hall. This bottled water will be available… at noon, to provide for your neighbors who are unable to fill their own water containers.

“Ron Gault and many other water experts have worked tirelessly, using several different methods to find the leak. We are grateful for them and for you as you reach out to your neighbors, especially those more vulnerable.”
