Officials with the Harlan Municipal Utilities water plant said Tuesday the plant is on track to set a record for gallons produced in a month, and they’re asking customers to implement voluntary water conservation over the next couple of days. Doug Hammer from HMU said”We’ve seen a large demand for water this month. The water plant has been running at full capacity for most of August. We’ve been able to keep up with demand but we’re asking our customers to please implement some voluntary conservation and refrain from watering yards or gardens over the next couple of days to give us a chance to catch up and replenish the clear wells and water towers. There has been no compromise to quality, we just need a little breathing room this week so if customers could cut back just a little, it would help us out.”
