---------------------

District Contractor has hit a two inch main on Wagon Wheel Rd. that requires emergency repair.  Patrons on Wagon Wheel Rd., and any other Patrons fed from this two inch main, will experience water service interruption until the line is repaired.  ETR (Estimated Time of Restoration) is 5:30 PM.

As District documentation is not always accurate, some water lines are not shown in any available plans, and although the District and the Contractor are doing their best to do locates to minimize accidental breaks, some unknown water lines may be discovered (and hit) during this first phase of the capital improvements work to the KCWD#1 distribution network.

Thank you for your understanding and patience.
