Water Pressure

You may have noticed a loss of water pressure about 9:30 Sunday night. Apparently the pump quit at the water treatment plant, the alarm didn't go off, and the water tower got drained enough to lose pressure.

Water Superintendent Nathan was able to quickly get to the treatment plant, reset the pump, and that got more water back in the tower, and by 10PM, we could all take a shower before going to bed.

We'll find out why we didn't get an alarm to prevent that.

As a reminder, if something went horribly wrong, we can always turn a valve and hook up to Central Iowa Rural Water. And since we are talking about pressure, about about some Billy Joel from the '80s.
