REMINDER: WATER SHUTOFF (February 11)
Shutoff: The CCWD plans to shut off water to NEARLY ALL CUSTOMERS between the hours of 8AM and 4PM on Tuesday February 11. Work on a minor but persistent leak in the "Price Line" necessitates shutting off water at the "Poly" Tank. Customers affected will be those with properties east of 450 Canyon Rd. As already noted - this will impact nearly all customers in the district.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Description of Repair: The work being performed will entail the replacement of a 3-inch PVC compression fitting with a more reliable fitting. This will involve draining a portion of the Price Line to perform the repairs. It will also require sanitizing, draining, and refilling parts of the water system to purge air and fully restore service.
The CCWD may perform additional repairs of minor leaks elsewhere on the Price Line if time permits.
Restoration of Water: Although we make every effort to prevent introduction of air into water lines, we strongly recommend taking steps to purge possible air in your line. We recommend turning on an outside hose bib slowly until your water flow is clean of air. The absence of air is indicated by a steady flow of water.
A less desirable method would be to slowly turn on an indoor faucet. This is less desirable because of the potential to put excessive pressure on more sensitive plumbing components inside your homes.
Thank you.
Canebrake County Water District Board of Directors
