KUB’s Water Quality
KUB is proud to provide high quality, safe drinking water every day to our community.
KUB takes in over 30 million gallons of water from the Tennessee River each day and treats it at the Mark B. Whitaker Water Treatment Plant. KUB also maintains a state-certified water quality lab where more than 100,000 tests are performed for more than 150 contaminants - more than required by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or state and federal law. KUB has an excellent water quality record, and we are committed to continuing that tradition in the future.

Water Line Inventory
KUB recently completed its water service line inventory as required by the EPA and is proud to share there was no evidence of lead lines found throughout the water distribution system. KUB worked with a consultant to review historical records that reflected the type of material used during installations. Additional methods used in the inventory included statistical analysis, customer surveys, and service excavations to appropriately determine water service line material types. Customers with concerns or questions about water quality, lead, or the composition of their home plumbing can reach out to KUB at 865-524-2911.
