Water Utility Management has announced a $6 million plan to install back-up generators at all water well sites system wide, including Bulloch County, to ensure reliable service during power outages. The upgrade follows Tropical Storm Helene, which left large parts of the region without power, disrupting water service for many residents.

Volunteers are needed to join this initiative which aims to clear debris, remove fallen trees, and provide critical support to residents impacted by the disaster. Citizens, including skilled chainsaw crews and heavy equipment operators, are urgently needed to aid in this relief effort.
