Update: The water outages were not District wide as reported earlier. Patrons at higher elevations were affected by a very low water level in the main reservoir. From review of the data, we had an unexplained, at this time, very high draw down of water between midnight and 5:30 AM. We have not discovered any large leak as of yet. However, if a large number of Patrons are irrigating between midnight and early morning, this could be causing a large demand on the system.
We are making and pumping at full capacity right now and we need your help!
PLEASE TURN OFF ALL OUTSIDE WATERING UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!
PLEASE NOTIFY YOUR NEIGHBORS SO THAT EVERYONE GETS THIS MESSAGE!
___________
First reports of Water Service interruptions in the District started coming in around 4:30 AM this morning. The reservoir was full around 7:00 PM yesterday evening, and is now very low. This means that around 100,000+ gallons were "used" between then and early this morning!
We need your help! We are suspecting a major break and leak somewhere in the District, and we have not gotten any reports.
PLEASE REPORT ANY UNUSUAL SURFACE WATER THAT YOU OBSERVE ASAP. WE HAVE BEEN OUT DRIVING AROUND LOOKING AND HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING SO FAR.
PLEASE CONSERVE WATER USE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!
