24 Hour Notice of Planned District-wide Water System Shutdown

Transcript of 24-Hour Phone Notice of District-wide Shutdown:

Phone Message June 23, 2025, 8:45 AM

This is an important 24-hour notice from the Kootenai County Water District No. 1 Board of Directors.

Tomorrow, there will be a planned District-wide Shutdown of the Water System, on Tuesday, June 24th from 9:00 am to 6:00 PM.  The District contractor will be tying in the new mains that were recently installed in the Bonanza area, as well as connecting existing meters.  In order to do this, valves will be closed on the main line that delivers water to the reservoir.  In order not to deplete the reservoir, which would cause mains to de-pressurize, it is critical that all District customers stop all water use during this shutdown until tie-ins are complete, and valves are re-opened.
