We apologize for the inconvenience. Here are some steps you can take to have water available:

Fill tub(s) with water and use the water to refill toilet tanks, wash hands and water pets.

Fill containers for drinking and cooking.

Please keep taps closed until the water is back on. We recommend running a kitchen or bathroom faucet for 5-10 minutes after the water is turned back on to get rid of milky water, which indicates there is air in the water, or red or discolored water, which indicates there was debris in the pipeline.
