Details: | The system lost pressure due to the submersible well pump not keeping up with demand. The reservoir was drained on this date around 5 am. The operator is looking to have the pump replaced as soon as possible. The system will apply strict rationing to try to maintain system pressure. If the system is unable to consistently maintain positive pressure, it may have to stay on a boil until the pump is replaced. Lifted 07/06/2018: System has installed a new submersible pump on 7/3. The new pump has adequate volume to maintain the reservoir level maintain pressure in the distribution system. The operator sampled at the source distribution system.
