Low Water Pressure – May 12, 2026

The district experienced low water pressure today. The operator searched the entire district for a water leak and was able to find the leak at an old emergency interconnect that the district set up at its inception with another MUD in the area. The leak has been capped and the water pressure is returning to normal. The operator is using Water Plant 2 to service the district while the water level is restored in the storage tanks at Water Plant 1. Special thanks to the operator’s personnel and board members with history on the district in identifying the problem.

The district apologizes for any inconvenience that the residents may have experienced.
