Recent severe storms have caused nearly 120,000 outages due to damaging winds and also impacted MLGW's water distribution system. 

MLGW is working to restore power and advises restoration could take a couple of days.  They are asking customers to voluntarily reduce water usage until 5pm on 6/26/2023. 

Water conservation tips include:

- If washing dishes by hand, don't leave the water running for rinsing.

- Don't let the faucet run while you clean vegetables and other foods.

- Delay washing clothes, watering your lawn, and washing your car until Monday after 5pm.

- Take short showers.

- Plug the sink to capture enough water for your shave, instead of continuously running the water.


Please always call 528-4465 to report emergencies such as downed power lines and gas leaks. Use your MLGW My Account or call 544-6500 to report outages and get updates.
