The System has had a major break on the large main at Sunnyside and Bonanza. This is the main line to feed the reservoir, so we are currently not able to supply water to the reservoir until it is repaired. District is starting repair activity now.
PLEASE STOP ALL WATER USE UNTIL THE REPAIR IS COMPLETE. THE REPAIR IS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETE THIS EVENING. PLEASE CHECK THE BLOG FOR UPDATES.
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.
