Monday Morning Water Updates

West Stone County Water Association, was still striving Monday morning to get water to customers on the Oxley leg of the system, according to Manager Bruce Hipp.
Customers in any part of that system whose neighbors have water but do not themselves should check their residential lines for leaks. On the new meters, the main screen shows a long row of numbers, Hipp said. If the lid is closed and opened a couple times it goes to a second screen showing three numbers that indicate gallons per minute. If there is no water use taking place in the home and those numbers are still changing, that indicates a leak. Call the WSCWA office at 870-363-4800 for assistance if necessary.

Residents were advised to check for leaks and call the office if they have problems or questions. In addition, make sure meters remain covered to prevent freezing. The number is 870-652-3385.
