Once again, we thank all our customers for their patience and understanding as we worked to recover from the winter storm event.

Questions and Answers

We know a lot of our status updates might make you more confused about how a water system works, so we’ve answered questions we’ve seen from Facebook. Have a question about your status update or other water system questions? Send us a message on Facebook! We might not reply right away, but we will address it as we see them.

My power came back on – why do I not have water?

Power is essential for us to pump water from our water source, treat the water, and build pressure for it to travel to your home.  Below is a short list of some reasons there may be power but no water at your home:

  • We may not have power at any of our facilities
  • We may not have back-up power, or we may have experienced fuel issues with our back-up power
  • We may not have back-up power, or we may have experienced fuel issues with our back-up power
  • Lines are frozen preventing the flow of water
  • Monitoring and control devices (electrical devices) for our water system may be frozen and inoperable
  • Not enough time has passed since power restoration to clean and pump out enough water through our water lines to reach your home. 
  • Our storage tanks may be refilling with clean water. This must happen before water pressure increases in the water lines.
  • There could be leaks that are interrupting service and causing a drop in water pressure.
  • Your pipes at your house may be frozen
  • Our water supplier (if we purchase water) may not be supply water to us due to issues of their own.
Why do you not have back-up power at every facility? 

We are experiencing unprecedented weather and power grid issues. We have mobile generators and permanent back-up generators at a few of our facilities, but it is not an industry practice to have back-up power at every facility due to the cost it would create for customers.  Even at some facilities where we do have back-up power, we have experienced fuel quality and fuel supply issues. In some cases, we cannot get a portable generator to the needed location due to icy road conditions.

I had water but now I do not – help me understand why?

We have been experiencing rolling power outages that shut off our production capacity.  With customers continuing to use water, the system will drain over time.  Systems that have been stable may experience high customer demand or water line breaks that can also result in the loss of water.  Service will be restored as soon as the conditions causing the water loss are corrected.

I am out of water; why have I not seen anyone from the water company at the local water plant? 

Our operations teams have attended plants in all our systems in person.  We have several systems unable to produce water due to the lack of power, frozen pipes, or frozen equipment. We may have multiple facilities providing water to your system and are focusing time at other facilities because they will more quickly provide water to the system.

You issued a boil water but there is no water?

We issue a boil water notice to all or affected parts of a system when our system pressure is lost, there is a major line break, or adequate disinfection is in question.  The notice is issued when water pressure drops below a certain point and is meant to advise customers that they should take precautions to boil their water until our testing shows that it is free from bacterial contamination.  We issue these notices regardless of the system producing water so customers can take steps to protect themselves when water is restored. Also note that due to elevation or locational reasons, it is possible that some customers within a system are receiving water while others are not.

The information on your website is not correct – why can you not tell me when I have water?

Information to customers is correct at the time it is provided.  However, due to pipe breaks, power outages, and high usage on our facilities, system conditions may change before we can update customers.  We will continue to provide updated information on the status of our systems as its available.

Your call center employees cannot tell me anything specific about my system – why not?

We are experiencing widespread system issues with power outages and frozen equipment.  While we may not be able to update information on specific systems, we are working hard to restore service to all customers as quickly as possible.

If water returns to my house but I do not have power, am I supposed to turn off m water to prevent pipes from freezing?

Our focus and responsibility are to restore water to customers at the meter.  You may have frozen pipes outside or inside your home.  To protect yourself from frozen pipes if you do not have heat, you may want to shut off your water supply, open taps to drain water and eliminate pressure that could burst pipes.  If you have heat, you can run a small amount of water (about one gallon per hour) from faucets on outside walls, which can help pipes from freezing.  These are individual decisions you should consider and make depending on the conditions at your home.

What can I do to protect my pipes from bursting when the water comes back on?

Whether your pipes burst depends upon several issues, with the most important one being whether your pipes are currently frozen and the material from which your pipes are made. If your pipes are not frozen, either draining the water from your pipes or preventing them from freezing using heat or insulation could prevent them from bursting. Water expands as it freezes.  Removing water from the line may help prevent the expansion from bursting the pipe. Opening cupboards where pipes are, placing insulation or blankets over pipes in attics, or wrapping pipes in crawl spaces all could help. Warming frozen pipes with an “indirect” heat source such as a blow dryer or other hot air (no flames!) should reduce the chances of additional damage.

What steps will you take to make sure you are better prepared for future emergencies?

After all our systems have been returned to a stable condition and customers are not without water, we will perform a thorough analysis of our system vulnerabilities, emergency response action plan, and the implementation of that plan.  The results of that analysis will inform our planning going forward to be more prepared for future emergency events.  Emergency events like this are unfortunate, but provide learning opportunities, and we seek to continuously improve.

Will my monthly base fee be prorated if I was affected by a prolonged water outage? Do I need to contact you to make this request?

Yes, for customers who experienced a water outage longer than 24 hours we will be prorating your monthly base fee based on the amount of time of the outage.  You do not need to contact us; we will be addressing billing issues like this after we have addressed all the emergency operational needs.
