Water Pipe Break Fixed
David Nordman, Oceanside Water District operator, announced the successful repair of a broken water pipe in Cape Meares. Repair was completed by approximately 10 AM today, July 11.
Portions of Cape Meares were without water for approximately two hours when water had to be turned off.
David reports that the it will take a bit of time to restore full pressure to the highest elevations in Cape Meares due to the low level in the reservoir, but as the tank fills the pressure will return.
