The Humboldt Bay Municipal Water District (HBMWD) has announced that it will conduct critical maintenance on its transmission pipeline this week.
Here is the schedule released today:
The isolation of the transmission pipeline will begin at 3:00 a.m. on Tuesday, September 9. The shutdown is expected to last a minimum of 24 hours, but could extend up to 48 hours depending on conditions.
During this maintenance period, local water systems, including those serving the Cities of Eureka and Arcata, the Humboldt Community Services District, and the Samoa Peninsula (Fairhaven, Samoa, and Manila) will operate using existing reservoir supplies.
There should not be any interruption to water service. However, we encourage customers to use water wisely over the next 48 hours.
HBMWD will post updates at www.hbmwd.com. For questions, customers may call HBMWD at (707) 443-5018 or City of Eureka Public Works at (707)441-4203, [email protected].
