The City is currently in Drought Response Stage 1 which mandates alternate day outdoor
watering restriction. Even numbered addresses are only allowed to water on even numbered
days and odd numbered addresses may only water on odd numbered days. Drought Response
Plan details are available at https://weblink.cityofpt.us/weblink/0/doc/118749/Page1.aspx.
City water use averaged 778,363 gallons per day over the past seven days, 8,032 gallons more
than the previous week. Lords Lake was at 14’ 1” today, with approximately 175 million gallons
remaining in the reservoir, and river diversions were supplying 2.44 million gallons of water.
Water conservation tip of the week:
In-sink garbage disposal devices use roughly 11.5 gallons of water each day. Try composting
organic wastes instead of throwing them away.
