Drought Forces Water Restrictions in Fort Pierre | Pierre News

Drought hits hard in Fort Pierre — the West River/Lyman-Jones Rural Water System has slapped mandatory outdoor watering rules in place from July 21 through September 30. Only water between 8 PM and 8 AM, and follow the odd/even day schedule based on your house number — no watering on the 31st. You can still hand-water with a hose, bucket, or can, and indoor use and livestock water remain unaffected. Violations? Watch out — stricter rules may come if the drought worsens. Stay updated via their website, Facebook, or call Murdo or Fort Pierre offices. Everyone’s gotta pitch in to conserve.
