To All Patrons,
The 20 HP Pump is back on line as of 3:45 PM this afternoon, and is moving water into the system mains. The filter bays at this time seem to be producing enough water to the contact chamber to keep the 20 HP pump running, and since the Cla valve has been isolated, we believe that we will be able to continue to recover the system through the night.
You may begin to see water pressure later this evening, but please hold off on water use until notified that the reservoir has been substantially recovered.
We will have a service provider on site tomorrow to give us the options for repairing or replacing the Cla valve. Getting the valve working properly will allow the 40 HP pump to move more water contingent on having enough flow from the filter bays.
A crew will be cleaning Bay 2 tomorrow, but it requires another day to restart it properly before that filtered water can be routed back to the contact chamber, possibly Wednesday earliest.
