The Water Treatment Plant (WTP) currently has the capacity to treat 32 million gallons per day (mgd) and treats an average of 15 mgd. While we have adequate capacity, any water system is potentially vulnerable to events such as drought, major water main breaks, etc. It is essential to be prepared for emergencies that can place unusually high demands on the system. Greenville Utilities has a Water Emergency Management Plan in place that designates three stages of emergencies. More details
If any of the emergency stages are declared, we will notify customers immediately through the local media (TV, newspaper, radio), Greenville TV (GTV9 - cable channel 9) and GUC’s weather channel (GUCtv - cable channel 35).
If you have questions about the Emergency Management Plan, please call us during regular business hours at 252-329-2160.
