During a Thursday meeting of the Austin Water Oversight Committee, members agreed to focus on expanding water reuse and conservation.
Austin Water will also offer cases of water to people in the affected area starting at 7 a.m. on Friday.A 48-inch waterline near the Davis Lane pump station is leaking and has to temporarily be taken out of service, Austin Water said. That could cause low water pressure and service disruptions.
To help maintain water pressure, customers in the area are asked to limit non-essential water use during the repair. That means avoiding outdoor watering, power washing and washing cars, as well as turning off irrigation systems and postponing washing clothes and dishes. The utility provider also urges customers to store water for essential uses, 1 gallon per person per day, no later than Thursday, before the repair work begins.
