Details: | Nicole called to let DWS know the water system has lost pressure due to problems with the main well. A new well pump was installed but is only operating intermittently as the water level drops below the pump after it runs for a short time. Bottled water is being provided to the residents, and port-a-potties have been set up. Two 2500-gallon water tanks are being delivered and will be filled with hauled water until the issue is resolved. The backup well will be placed into service after some piping and valves are replaced. A boil advisory is in place until the system can maintain constant pressure and passing bacteria sample results are received. |
