A break in the 24-inch water transmission line between Dry Creek and the transfer station, forcing the city of Port Angeles to declare a Stage 2 serious water shortage today, has been repaired.
But the line in west Port Angeles must be pressurized, so the Stage 2 alert — requiring all customers to conserve water — will remain in effect overnight, according to Public Works Director Glenn Cutler.
The shortage affects all city residents, plus those served by water agencies through Clallam PUD between the eastern city limit and the western edge of Morse Creek.
Water is currently being supplied from the city’s reservoirs.
Updates will be posted when available, and a full report will appear in Tuesday’s edition of the Peninsula Daily News.
