Details: | THE IDLEWAY SYSTEM HAD A BREAK IN THE PIPE. THEY'VE LOST OVER 100K GALLONS SO FAR AND HAVE NOT FOUND THE LEEK, THEY'VE ISOLATED THE LEAK TO A CERTAIN AREA THOUGH. THEY HAVE A COMPANY FROM BEND COMING NEXT MONDAY TO DETECT THE LEAK. THEY THINK IT MIGHT BE UNDER JUNIPER CANYON ROAD, OFF TO THE SIDE. I SUGGEST THEY CALL THE CITY OF PRINEVIILE'S ROAD DEPARTMENT TO SEE IF THEY CAN HELP. THEY HAVE BROUGHT IN A TRUCK OF WATER (ITS THE CITY OF BEND WATER SO IT IS POTABLE) SO PEOPLE CAN USE IT FOR BATH AND WASHING. A RESIDENT HAS OFFERED TO FUILL UP A 1000 GALLON POTABLE WATER TANK TO DELIVER IT TO THE RESIDENTS. ONE SIDE CAN GET WATER, BUT WITH THE PRESSURE AT ZERO, IT CAN NOT BE PUMPED. THEY ARE WORKING ON TRYING TO FIND THE LEAK AND HAVE BEEN OUT THERE 12-15 HOURS A DAY. THEY WILL LET ME KNOW WHEN THEY HAVE FOUBD THE LEAK AND WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO TO FIX IT. MORE TO COME. |
