Prairie Grove Utilities – Extreme Winter Weather Update #10

Update 5:30pm Monday:

As of 5pm, water is flowing once again.

We intend to keep it open until 8pm as planned, then stop and let it replenish again overnight.

Several customer side leaks were found this morning and fixed or the meters turned off.

The draw on the system has improved considerably, but it’s still slightly more than the well can supply.

With one more overnight replenish, we should be able to start the morning tomorrow with 100% full tanks.

We believe there are still a few leaks out there.

But if we and/or the homeowners with leaks are able to locate those last few over the course of the day tomorrow, we’re hopeful that we can then get back to 24 hour operation.

We’ll update again at 8.
