The cleaned bay is performing better than expected, and at this time the District is clarifying that "essential use" of water is to include normal household use: Cooking, Laundry, Dishes, Showers and toilet use, watering of food gardens (hold off on ornamental and landscape watering until the third SSF bay is cleaned and back online!), and, of course, water for pets and livestock.
Thank you to all Patrons that are, and are continuing to, conserve on their water use. Based upon the numbers we are seeing at the plant, there has been widespread cooperation, and it has made a huge impact on the District's ability to keep water flowing to all Patrons.
Please continue to monitor the blog for any new information and updates on water use.
