The irrigation company has informed the city that it will be able to supply secondary water until the end of September, only if everyone is conservative. The water wa-te- in Joes Valley Reservoir is controlled by the Bureau of Reclamation. Castle Dale City receives apportionment according to the incoming stream Dow, which at the present time is far below normal. Castle Dale City officials ask residents to follow a watering schedule of: a.m. or p.m., only three days per week. Culinary meters have been read for the past two months and will be read again the end of October.
