[HollyMutual-Announce] System is turned off

[Holly Mutual Water Company]

All:

Xcel Energy is still saturated with work related to last week's tornado
in Highlands Ranch. They were not able to turn off the power to the
Whitehall Well today, but are expecting to free a crew to make that
happen tomorrow. Once the power is off CWW will pump the water out of
the well's pit and assess what needs to be done next.

Cheers,
Mark
