Sunday Water Outage Was Major
The Low reservoir Alarm Light was on and early AM water outages were experienced system wide. Our well could not keep up with our usage. Water was available off and on Sunday until in the early afternoon. At that time WE WERE OUT OF WATER. Our operator came on site and with the help of several members were able to trouble shoot our system, it is believed to be leaking on the delivery side of pump #2. With this information the operator was able to switch our home and fire hydrant supply to pump #1. We will have normal water supply with this arrangement until the pump #2 side of the delivery system is fixed. We are lucky our system was designed with this feature.
A TANKER WAS CALLED AND OUR RESERVOIR WAS SOMEWHAT REPLENISHED . KOOTENAI COUNTY FIRE & RESCUE MADE ARRANGEMENTS TO BRING WATER TENDERS IN THE EVENT WE HAD A FIRE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. OUR FIREMEN ARE THERE FOR US, REMEMBER TO THANK THEM FOR THEIR SERVICE.
