DROUGHT CONTINGENCY PLAN UPDATE July 15, 2025
Stage 3 Drought Contingency Protocol is still in place. Non-essential water usage is still in place at this time. The Board of Public Works has maintained a full reservoir of 22’ despite the challenges presented.
We will continue to provide data with daily readings on the number of gallons pumped, pumping times, and reservoir levels. This will keep the public informed of current conditions. See the City of Auburn website at https://auburn.ne.gov for updates. The reservoir holds 1.5 million gallons of water and has not dropped below the normal levels and is currently stable. This is due to the implementation of the plan and the collaboration of the members of the Auburn and Peru communities’ reduction in use. We appreciate all efforts for conserving usage until levels return to normal.
