K-33 area OUTAGE 2/24/26

February 24, 2026

Today, once again, we will have a water service shut down South of Wellsville due to the KDOT water line relocation project. This will be to work on a smaller pipe, and being such, should require a shorter amount of down time. We plan to begin our shut down between 10:00-11:00 AM. It should only last and hour or 2. We will post updates here. Thank you for your patience as we try to wrap this project up. Further updates will be posted to our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/share/1DpUM5JKKx/

Water Outage / K-33. **UPDATE**

February 23, 2026

** UPDATE #2 ** ALL WATER SERVICE SHOULD BE BACK ON AT THIS TIME. Unfortunately, we didn't make it as far along as planned and a small area will have to be shut down for a little while tomorrow. While I am sorry for the inconvenience, I am hoping to see water volume and pressure improvement in some areas due to more efficient watermain routing. The new water mains that were connected today have been flushed, but some air may remain. If you notice "foggy" looking water, it will be from leftover air in the line. More foushing tomorrow should finish out any further air issues. Please let us know if you are still experiencing other water issues at this time.
