Flagler County officials are urging residents to limit water usage to emergency needs only so that overwhelmed sewer systems can catch up.

“We are now at emergency water usage only,” said Bunnell City Manager Alvin Jackson. “We have no storage for wastewater.”

The city of Palm Coast has many areas on an electricity dependent pep tank system. Other unincorporated areas are on septic systems.

“It is critically important for everyone to limit their water usage right now,” said Emergency Management Director Jonathan Lord. “We understand it is inconvenient but it’s for the good of the whole county.”
