UPDATE 4-2-24
Repair Efforts continue with the 48-inch main on the Fort Cavazos Military Reservation. A damaged section was replaced overnight and briefly placed back in service about 8:30 this morning when a leak was discovered on the upstream pipe segment. Upon closer examination, the upstream pipe joint has a longitudinal crack that appears to extend the entire length of that pipe joint. The contractor is now excavating that entire pipe joint so that it can be closer examined to assess what repairs will be needed. Excavation is expected to last until 5 or 6 pm due to the presence of large solid rock on either side of the pipe. Once excavation is complete a realistic timeline for completion can be provided.
City of Harker Heights remains on a Stage 4 Drought Contingency Plan.
