Annual Drinking Water Treatment Change | TOWN OF HOLLY SPRINGS: (hollyspringsnc.gov)
Town of Holly Springs issued the following announcement on March 1.
Your drinking water might smell and taste more like chlorine in March because of an annual change in the treatment. It will still be safe to drink.
The state requires this month-long switchover each year for a balancing of treatment methods.
Ordinarily, the water treatment plant that supplies our Town disinfects with chloramines, a mixture of chlorine and ammonia.
Each year during March, the plant suspends the addition of ammonia. Kidney dialysis users should know that the water might contain chloramines, chlorine, or a mixture in March.
Call Holly Springs Utilities & Infrastructure with any questions about the switch at (919) 577-3150.
During April, the plant will return to chloramines for disinfection. Chlorine and chloramine mixtures may be present in early April.
