Details: System reached out to DWS staff to communicate impacts of recent winter weather events. The system lost power to their test building sometime after 11:40am on January 13, 2021. Power was restored sometime before 3:30pm on January 14th, 2021. They maintained pressure despite power loss but lost ability for automatic chlorine sampling. Consequently, they took grab samples measuring chlorine and pH until power was restored and adjusted chlorine feed as needed. During this time, pH ranged from 7.62-7.72 (above 7.1 minimum set) and chlorine ranged from 0.56-1.50 mg/L.
