TWSD water situation update 11/11/25

TWSD water situation update 11/11/25 StateWide drilling finished pulling the water pump on the main well late yesterday. Upon inspection, they determined that we have 11 sticks of pipe that need to be replaced. They said there weren't any available in El Paso and Albuquerque but this afternoon they called and said there is some in Lubbock. We are sending a truck and trailer to pick it up tomorrow. If everything goes well, it should be here tomorrow night.

We're waiting on a call back from Statewide on the status of the new pump being built. There's no guarantees, but there's a possibility the new motor, pump and pipe can be placed on Thursday or Friday. When that happens, the well needs to be flushed and tested. The testing company we use in Alamogordo does not do testing on Friday but we're hoping they will make an exception for this emergency. If not, it may be the first part of the week before we can bring the well back on line.

The tank levels appear to be holding steady this past couple of days due to the Golf Course well and everyone's continued conversation efforts. Thank you again.
