Water will be turned off immediately for the entire system since the repair on Wagontire blew the corp stop. It’s expected to be down for less then 1 hour.
For members with pumps, you should shut off pumps if they not setup to auto shut off.
UPDATE: As of 1:33pm, we’ve been notified by OEC that the treatment system is starting up and it will take about 30-45 minutes for everyone to have water.
Leak repair will begin the morning of Tuesday, July 8th so be aware of equipment and trucks in the area of 329 Wagontire Drive. The plant operators from OEC believe the repair can be isolated to a single home so water will not be shut off for all members. OEC is waiting on an official “Okay” from Oregon Utility Notification Center – Oregon811 before they can dig. We will notify everyone if details change.
Lab tests confirmed water samples came back negative for contaminates so the Boil Water Advisory has been lifted for Dole Road and Homestead residents.
Plant status has been upgraded to normal capacity to there is no need to conserve water use at this time.
Thank you!
Since we have not received lab test results from Monday’s water samples, there is still a Boil Water Advisory in effect for Dole Road and Homestead properties. View Monday’s Notice – Drinking Water Warning
Conserve Water notice is also still in effect since the water treatment plant is running at low capacity.
