REMINDER: Planned Vista Booster Shutdown, TODAY, Tuesday , September 9, 2025, 10:00 AM

UPDATE 4:40 PM:  District was able to figure out how to work around the failed valve to re-prime the pumps and get the Vista Booster back up and running.  Water service has been restored.

Reminder: Patrons who have had their water service interrupted, should open one inside tap slowly to vent any air that may have gotten into their plumbing, and then flush their lines until running water is clear, during first use.

Note:  At some later date, the District will need to schedule a shutdown to replace the valve that failed.  The new valve has been ordered, and the shutdown will be scheduled some time after it is received.

----------------------------------

UPDATE 2:10 PM:  Issues with re-start of the pumps in Vista Booster with valve failure.  New ETR (Estimated Time of Restoration) of water service is 6:00 PM this evening as valve will need to be replaced.  Please monitor the blog for updates.

There will be a shutdown of the Vista Booster Station TODAY, Tuesday, September 9th, beginning at 10:00 AM for work on the Generator.  Patrons on Highview, Vista Loop, parts of Bonnell, and the Kingswood area will experience a water service interruption until the work is completed.  Duration of the shutdown is estimated to be four (4) hours.  Patrons should also expect an extended process time for re-pressurization after the work is completed.  Please monitor the blog for updates, and let your neighbors know about this planned shutdown, as not all Patrons are subscribed to the blog.

Leak Repairs on Lower Borley Rd. Today, Wednesday, August 27, 2025

District repaired one leak today on lower Borley Road.  Patrons were notified directly by the Water System Manager of water service interruption.  Mains are being repressurized now, but Patrons on lower Borley Rd. should be aware that there is a second leak that is surfacing, that will most likely be addressed tomorrow when a more precise location of the second break can be made.

Buckboard Rd. Water Main Break - Temporary Water Service Interruption

UPDATE 6:50 PM:  Water Service has been restored, and all valves were re-opened.  However, water leak is not surfacing in the same place.  The District will have to watch over the weekend to pinpoint where the repair needs to be made.  As of now, the District is operating in the normal mode through the reservoir.

Reminder: Patrons who have had their water service interrupted, should open one inside tap slowly to vent any air that may have gotten into their plumbing, and then flush their lines until running water is clear, during first use.

_____________________________

The District has identified a break on the Main serving the Reservoir on Buckboard Rd.  Valves will be shut in order to isolate the leak so that it can be repaired.  Unfortunately, repairs cannot begin until tomorrow morning.

Patrons on Ponderosa, Buckboard, and possibly others, will experience a water service interruption until District personnel can set the system up to work directly from the pumps at the main Pump house.  Estimated Time of Restoration (ETR) with this temporary bypass of the reservoir operation is anticipated to be 6:30 PM this evening.

Please monitor the blog for updates, and let your neighbors know about this water service interruption as not all Patrons subscribe to the blog.
