We are aware that many of you have been with little to no water today. We are still working hard to find the source of the problem. As of today we will be pulling water from our 308 well to help with the 77 well side. This may effect anyone on our system. Please bear with us until this gets resolved. Also again at 10:00 p.m. tonight, July 21, 2025, we will shut down Well 77. The well will be allowed to refill from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. On Tuesday, July 22, 2025, at 7:00 AM, we will restart Well 77, unless water levels drop too low, which would necessitate another shutdown.
We kindly ask that everyone on our whole system conserve water and limit usage to essential needs until we identify the source of the problem.
If you have noticed any leaks in your area, please call us on our emergency line at 469-570-5818. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding as we work to resolve this issue.
Sincerely,
South Ellis County Water Supply Corporation
