The City of Howe has issued a request for residents to conserve water for a period of about one week. The directive comes in response to operational issues affecting the local water supply infrastructure.

According to the city, one of its wells is currently producing water at a rate lower than typical levels. As a result, the water drawn from the city’s storage system is being depleted faster than it can be replenished by the well.

City staff members, along with the contractor responsible for the well, are currently investigating the cause of the reduced production. No further details regarding the specific nature of the malfunction or the expected timeline for a full resolution were provided in the initial report.

Residents are advised to follow the conservation guidelines for the duration of the one-week period to help stabilize the water supply while the investigation continues.
