Update Sunday 9:00 PM - Repair work may begin Monday

To All Patrons:

As of 6:00 PM, the reservoir was holding at around 5 feet, ~1/3 full, even after opening the isolation valve for the Patrons on Mullan Trail Rd.  We have not been able to increase above that level all day.  We are hoping that we can see an increase overnight as Patrons continue to conserve water use and minimize outside watering.  JD Owen will head down to the plant around midnight to monitor that all is operating as expected.

The District will attempt to coordinate with Eastside Highway District early tomorrow morning, and the tentative plan is to begin digging tomorrow, Monday, to uncover and then repair the leak.  Please expect that lower Mullan Trail Rd. will be closed to through traffic tomorrow around 9:00 AM until sometime in the evening.  Please use Sunnyside to Lakeshore, and Tumble Creek to Sunnyside as alternate routes around the work area.

Thank you for your cooperation.
