North and South Residents Update:
Good Morning, The Surface Water Plant is back up and running. The Pinecrest tank is full and has been turned on this morning. This will begin filling Lake L and the North System tank. Everyone will have water today once all the tanks have filled back up. We appreciate your patience during this time

North and South System Update:
The Surface Water Plant can now produce water; however, we have to get the turbidity down to state standards before filling the tanks and distributing it to customers. This will not be a quick process, but the crew is working diligently and will continue until water is restored. We understand you are frustrated; we are as well. We do not set out to do this on purpose by any means; things happen that we can not control. We do appreciate all of our customers and your patience during this time. We will get water to you as soon as we can.
