PAWSD crews will be pinching down the river crossing valving through town and will also be pinching down the culvert crossings in the Hatcher area. You may experience pressure loss. If PAWSD crews need to close valves due to lost water lines, you may experience no water. Once water recedes, crews will be out to evaluate damage and make repairs. Water will be restored as soon as possible.
Citizens are advised to fill bathtubs or water jugs to prepare for impact on the system due to the flooding event.
The PAWSD Main Entrance Gate, Water Fill Station, and Wastewater Dump Station located at 100 Lyn Ave is closed due to flooding in the spill way. All preparations are to protect public health and the overall distribution system.
Currently, all Water Treatment Plants and Wastewater Collection Systems are fully operational.
All prep and response work to isolate damaged infrastructure on the distribution and collection systems is to protect the overall system and public health.
