Use of Water Wednesday Sets Record in Greeley
Greeley residents set a daily water-use record as temperatures reached a high of 101 degrees. City water director Olin Shaffer reported 17,600,000 gallons metered Wednesday, surpassing the prior high of 17,860,000 from June 29, 1950. Demand neared the 18,000,000 gallon daily limit the Bellvue filter plant lines can deliver, with peak hourly use about 29,000,000 gallons per day during morning watering. Water source shifted from Cache la Poudre River to Horsetooth Reservoir for about a month to reduce color in the supply, a problem tied to storms in the Fort Collins area.
