City to Shutdown Water In High Plane Area

SAN ANGELO, TX -- The City of San Angelo has confirmed the high plane area in San Angelo (the Bluffs, Southland, Lake Nasworthy area, and Bentwood) will lose water in approximately three hours.

The shutdown will happen because the Southwest ground storage tank and elevated Bluffs tank are running out of water. Due to the multiple water main breaks that have occurred across town, the water plant is not able to push enough water through the lines to those tanks.

City water crews are working as fast as they can to fix the water leaks throughout the city.

The city reminds citizens its imperative that everyone conserves as much water as they can.

The city is asking for people to assist the water utility by lowering their water usage to essential needs only. Residents should refrain from taking baths or showers or use water for any non-life sustaining uses at this time.
