Park staff successfully restored the pump at Havasupai Gardens that supplies water to the South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park and all water restrictions have been removed.
Visitors, residents, and businesses should consistently practice basic water conservation and be mindful of their water usage at all times. Water conservation tips for visitors and residents include turning off the water while brushing teeth or shaving, washing only full loads of dishes or laundry, and reporting leaks and wasteful water use to appropriate staff. Residents are also reminded to use reclaimed water for plants, lawns, and washing vehicles and to not fill large-capacity water tanks in the park.
In the event of a future disruption in water delivery, park managers will implement mandatory water restriction levels based on the volume of water in storage. Some restrictions may include implementing low-water cleaning practices in hotel rooms, closing public laundry and shower facilities and closing the RV dump/fill station at Camper Services.
The National Park Service would like to thank its partners, staff, residents and visitors for conserving water over the last several weeks and for their continued water conservation efforts.
