Low water on Lateral 7/11
The water levels on the lateral are looking a little low this evening. We've done everything we can to keep as much water as possible coming this way. You can help the pumps keep running by following the water schedule and choosing to water either during the morning or evening assigned times (not both). Water levels are forecasted to keep falling as the summer wears on and the river falls lower. The Board has no control over Nature.
The Board has been asked to publicly announce that neighbors should not be moving or removing boards in the lateral ditch. If this is Greek to you, no worries, the Board does not suspect any of our neighbors of doing so but we are honoring the request regardless.
Update: We can confirm the pumps shut off late last night or early this morning due to low water levels in the holding tank. This is by design, so the pumps do not burn out trying to pump water that is not available. The Board would ask that neighbors not abuse the message line by calling in the wee hours to report that the pumps are off. We know, and there is not a thing we can do about it. All of our Board members are volunteers, and we are just as frustrated as you because we are all neighbors and are in this together. Thank you.
