Dear Arrowhead & Somerset customers,
Thank you for your patience and understanding while our well was down. The repairs have been completed and the well is back in service! All services should be operating at the same level as they did last year. Please keep in mind that unexpected power outages may still occur due to safety shut downs of the electrical grid. These outages are typically short in duration. Please feel free to call my cell if you have questions or comments, 541-410-8568.

Update 7/16/2024 -
Dear Arrowhead & Somerset customers,
It appears that we will not receive the items needed for installation of one of our wells as anticipated. The items needed are specialized and obtaining them quickly has been difficult. This, unfortunately, means we will continue to struggle with pressure issues.
Please remember the following: Try to coordinate with your neighbors to water at different times of day, if possible. Please refrain from watering between 6 AM and 9 AM as that will result in low domestic pressure system wide, and very poor irrigation performance. Finally, alternate day watering.
I understand this has not been a great year and I apologize for the poor service. We are doing what we can and will keep you posted as information becomes available. Please feel free to call my cell if you have questions or comments, (541) 410-8568. Thank you for your patience.

Update 7/9/2024 - Somerset/Arrowhead Irrigation will be turned on today. An even/odd watering schedule is required. Please be aware that power outages that affect our wells will mean we have to shut off the irrigation with little or no notice. We hope to have one of our down wells operational by this time next week. This should eliminate the need for future shutdowns. Please feel free to reach out to me with questions or comments.

Update 7/8/2024 - Arrowhead/Somerset Irrigation Alert-Weekend power outages caused drops in water storage and turning on irrigation water could cause domestic water outages. The irrigation water for that area will be on as soon as supplies have rebounded.
Dear Somerset / Arrowhead Irrigation Customers,
Last week there were two unexpected well failures that caused system wide issues. We shut off the irrigation last Friday to help mitigate a large pressure swing that developed after the well failures. We hope to have the irrigation water on starting Tuesday, July, 2nd and continuing through Friday, July 5th. Because the two wells are out of commission, we will have to shut off the irrigation water over the weekend to ensure we do not run out of drinking water. We are still investigating the causes of the well failures and the pressure swings. As we learn more we may change the schedule. Please watch our website and sign up for text alerts to receive the latest information. Thank you for your patience. – Jason Wick
