Kingston Water Department filtering out debris
SUMMARY: Hurricane Helen has introduced significant debris into the Tennessee and Clinch Rivers in Kingston, affecting local water quality. Kingston’s utility director, Kevin Hamilton, noted that debris levels reached a record high of 150 parts per million at the treatment plant. However, the plant effectively filters this down to 0.05 parts per million for safe drinking water. While filters require more frequent cleaning due to changing weather conditions, Hamilton has observed a slight decrease in debris over the past week and anticipates this trend will continue.
Hurricane Helene threw all kinds of debris into the Tennessee River and in Kingston, some residents have noticed it mixing with the Clinch River.
