The LCWD crew will be repairing a water main on Main Street on Tuesday 6/28/2022 at 8:00 a.m. Water service in that area may be interrupted due to this repair. We anticipate the work will be completed within the 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. timeframe.
DURING THIS REPAIR YOU MAY EXPERIENCE PERIODS WITH NO WATER, POOR PRESSURE OR POSSIBLY DISCOLORATION OF THE WATER, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE WATER IS TURNED BACK ON. PLEASE SEE BELOW FOR THE DO’S AND DON’TS.
- TURN YOUR COLD WATER ON FIRST AND LET IT RUN UNTIL IT IS CLEAR, PREFERABLY FROM AN OUTSIDE WATER SPIGOT.
- Do not run your hot water or use your dishwasher until the water is clear.
- Do not use your washing machine – your clothes may become stained.
- Although the water is safe to drink, please avoid drinking the water if it is discolored.
- We do not recommend, but you may flush your toilet; however, when the water is turned on you will need to flush several times to clear the discolored water from the toilet tank.
- If you accidentally use your hot water while the water is discolored, you may have to completely flush the hot water tank to clear out the discolorations and there is a possibility that you may damage the hot water heater.
