Please everyone check your water meter for leaks. If it is leaking please call 598-3456. If possible turn your water off at the meter. If you have North Manchester Water please call 598-5403. We have leaks all throughout our county and this would be a huge help in locating these. Thank you.

For those without water, Big Creek Fire Department and the old IGA building will be handing out water. Water Kiosks are available in Oneida and Redbird.

The City of Manchester is currently experiencing low water pressure in Big Creek, Redbird, Sandhill, Hector, and other areas surrounding the southern part of our county. At this time there are no issues with water service within the city or in the northern section of the county served by the City of Manchester. Unless a major leak occurs within the city or northern part of the city service area, there are NO plans to cut off water to those areas as crews to continue work in the parts of the county with little or no pressure.
It is important that everyone in all parts of the county conserve water, repair leaks in your home or business, and report any suspected leaks on the utility side to 598-3456.
