Water Outage due to Emergency Valve Repairs and Hydrant Replacement-May 18th 8AM-11AM

Thank you for your patience throughout the ongoing outdoor water ban. As many of you know, drought conditions have affected our region for much of the last year. According to the latest Rhode Island drought maps, 99% of the state is still classified as “abnormally dry.”

However, after closely monitoring our water production and remediating several wells, CREW is implementing a change in restrictions to allow some outdoor water use. Effective immediately, we will be moving from a full outdoor water ban to an even/odd day watering schedule.

What does this mean?

  • Even-numbered addresses may water outdoors on even-numbered days of the month.
  • Odd-numbered addresses may water outdoors on odd-numbered days of the month.


This change is a balance between conserving water and providing some relief to our customers. We will continue to monitor the drought conditions, and if rainfall improves, we will reevaluate and aim to lift the outdoor water ban completely.

We appreciate your understanding and continued efforts in conserving water during these challenging times.

Pascoag Utility District will have to complete two emergency valve repairs and one hydrant replacement tomorrow morning (May 18th) which will disrupt your water service. From 08:00 AM till 11:00 AM, valve and hydrant replacement will be conducted in three separate areas of the water distribution system simultaneously. The repair will require a momentary outage of your water supply. This repair is required in order to proceed with the water lining project which is currently underway. Please be advised that our contractor Biszko, has left notification on customers properties whom will be affected. This message serves as reminder to all customers within the affected areas, that all preparations be made prior to start of tomorrow mornings anticipated shut down.  As always, thank you for your understanding and consideration regarding these matters.
