EXTRA TERLINGUA MOON!!!! - Special announcement about our water system

STUDY BUTTE WATER SUPPLY CORPORATION NOTIFICATIONS: October 9, 2023 We are attempting to prevent a catastrophic failure of the water system. If you are not in dire need of water, we are asking for you to voluntarily shut off your meters for the next 24 hours. If the system does run out of water it will take 48 hours to fill the tanks to operating level. We are now on a boil notice as we are bypassing our RO system in an attempt to prevent the tanks going dry. This situation has been caused by the recent failure of Well #2 and the delay in repairs to the well; in addition to recent power outages and the increase in usage from the holiday weekend it is not caused by the level of the aquifer. Please do not panic and hoard water, as this would speed up the potential failure of the system. Please contact the SBWSC office if you have questions about this situation. Please share with your neighbors, we must all do what we can to avoid more down time. Steps are already in motion to avoid this situation in the future.
