Water System

Water Service Interruptions

Interruptions in water service may occur Thursday, March 7, 2019 between 9 am and 3 pm for replacement of the pressure reducing valve located in the Upper Lakeview/Rigi PRV pit.     

Should the crew be unable to replace the valve Thursday, the valve will be replaced Monday, March 11.  Water service interruptions may occur between 9 am and 3 pm to facilitate the repair. 

Please plan accordingly. 

We appreciate your understanding while this necessary work is completed.   

Areas of the district may have experienced low or no water pressure during the day today.  This was a result of an earlier than expected well pump replacement at DPW.  The DPW well is the main source for water for the district and has been offline since Thursday of last week.  An emergency pump replacement attempted on Thursday was not possible due to the non standard installation of the pump performed  in 1995.   

Earlier today the district water operator successfully tracked down a resource who was able to be on site today and swapped a backup pump the district had on site around 2:00pm today.

The pump has been replaced and has begun moving water again.  While the DPW pump was off-line our secondary water supply was providing water to the district. 

We expect water pressure and supply to return to normal level over the the next few hours.
