[HollyMutual-Announce] Well system overuse

All:
Colorado Water Well has advised us that we have recently been using the
Holly Mutual system far beyond its capacity. This causes the storage
tanks to empty, which in the past has led to premature equipment
failures and system downtime.
Our schedule is based on each property having two watering nights per
week. During the "hot season" the watering times are from 12:00
midnight to 10:00 am. However starting on August 15, we return to the
"cool season" schedule of 3:00 - 10:00 am. Watering outside of these
times puts an additional load on the system, as it cannot recover and
replenish the storage tanks. If everyone adheres to the schedule, we
should have no problems with the wells in their current configurations.
The current schedule is posted at:

We are asking that all households verify that they are only watering
during their designated nights and times. If we are not able to control
our use, the board will be forced to choose more drastic actions such
as fines, disconnecting abusers or shutting the system down to protect
it from damage.
Thanks,
Mark Derbyshire
