On April 13, 2020 the City of Kings Mountain experienced a power outage during severe natural
conditions. As a result, the City is reporting a 330 gallon SSO. We responded with our vactor truck and
removed approximately 4,600 gallons. Power was restored within 55 minutes.
Due to the impact of the weather event on April 13, 2020 the discharge was caused by severe
natural conditions and there were no feasible alternatives to the discharge. Should you have any
questions or require additional information please contact the office at 704-734-4531.
Best Regards,
Ricky Duncan
