Friendsville Reminds Residents Gallon Drinking Water Is Available at Town Hall

The Town of Friendsville is reminding residents who live within town limits that gallon drinking water is available for pickup at Town Hall, 945 Community Drive. They also want to acknowledge concerns regarding prolonged exposure to elevated disinfection byproducts (DBPs) in drinking water. While short-term exposure is generally not the primary concern, long-term exposure over many years may be associated with potential health risks. These concerns may be particularly important for residents who could be more vulnerable, including elderly individuals, medically compromised residents, and underserved members of our community.
