The following areas will experience a water outage from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 15, 2023.

Adjacent areas also may be affected by the outage. If water on your street is scheduled to be turned off, a door-hanger notice will be posted a minimum of 24 hours in advance.
Once service is restored, residents may notice discolored water due to iron, manganese, and calcium deposits. Although the water is safe to drink, the City recommends waiting for the water to become clear before washing laundry.
The discoloration should disappear within 24 hours. If it does not, residents should flush all cold-water faucets in their home for five minutes. If the discoloration persists, call Las Cruces Utilities Dispatch at 575/526-0500 for assistance.
