The Village of Firefox posted a water restriction notice on its website on June 25.
“The current dry weather conditions have placed a severe burden on the Foxfire Village Water System. All non-essential uses of drinking water are banned. All garden and landscape irrigation must be reduced to the minimum amount necessary for the survival of vegetation.”
The Moore County water system was stressed by the high demand as people irrigate their lawns. The public works director for the Village of Pinehurst was keeping an eye on the water tanks. The public works director for Carthage was also closely monitoring water use to determine if and when water restrictions might be needed.
