[HollyMutual-Announce] Interim irrigation schedule change

All:

Our simultaneous Piedmont-Whitehall experiment is in progress, and we are distributing water from 6:00 - 10:00 am. The water pressure has been lower than our target for west side properties, but we are only at the first stage of balancing the well pumping. When CWW is next able to stop by, we hope to increase Piedmont's pumping volume and pressure.

Last week CWW also installed improved monitoring devices at Piedmont. We still have concerns about Piedmont well production and/or whether we are losing water to pipeline/irrigation system leak(s). Better data should help guide that detective work. If we're able to solve those potential problems, we should be able to expand our water distribution period.

Cheers,
Mark

As always each property is only allowed to irrigate on its two designated days per week, as specified by the published schedule (link below) - there are no exceptions for drip/hand watering.

With it back online we will see if there is any change in the water rate appearing from underground, and be looking into Piedmont's well pump production. There may still be work ahead to return the system to full operation, depending on what we find. But we are making progress and hope to further increase the irrigation period duration.
