The City of Commerce municipal water system has been offline since Tuesday evening, when the system’s pumps failed. There is no timeline for when repairs to the pumps will be completed and water pressure will be restored.
Even after water delivery resumes, a boil water notice issued Tuesday night will be in effect until discontinued.
The City of Commerce issued this statement late Wednesday morning:
The City of Commerce continues to experience little to no water across the distribution system. However, there has been some progress over the last 12 hours.
The Water Treatment Plant (WTP) received power last night at midnight. As treatment systems were coming online, it was discovered that one of the outside water pumps that is needed to push water into the treatment system malfunctioned. Crews have been working to de-ice the pump and a pump technician is driving to Commerce this morning to see if it can be recovered.
