A fire destroyed Tuluksak’s only source of clean, running water on Saturday, and an emergency water delivery is delayed because of weather conditions.
Donated bottled water is ready to go out on the next plane from Bethel, but Tuluksak’s runway has been unusable because of snow. The man who usually plows it is in Anchorage being treated for COVID-19.
