MOORHEAD WATER RESTRICTIONS LIFTED

Water conservation measures in place in Moorhead during the past week were lifted today, according to Cliff McLain, water division manager for Moorhead Public Service. The water conservation advisories issued last Tuesday are no longer in effect for Moorhead residents.

Moorhead water customers had been asked to conserve water during the recent flood emergency. "We greatly appreciate all the residential and commercial customers in Moorhead who reduced their water usage by approximately 25 percent," says McLain. Moorhead's water remained safe to drink throughout the flood, but residents were encouraged to conserve so that the City's sanitary sewer system would not be overburdened.

Water conservation measures helped the City's Wastewater Treatment Facility and lift stations avoid potential problems during the recent rains.
