Greater Cincinnati Water Works is experiencing a heavy workload due to the extreme temperatures. At this time, we are responding to 66 leaks and breaks. We have 11 water main breaks—4 of which are currently without water, and 8 remain in service but throttled.
We are prioritizing breaks in areas with no water service, followed by communities with partial water service.
Beginning Monday, 2/2/26, four crews will be on-duty and we will be operating in emergency mode with mandatory 12-hour shifts. This will allow us to increase our response capacity.
Our crews are working diligently to address each issue as quickly and safely as possible. We understand the inconvenience these disruptions cause and appreciate the public’s patience as we work through the backlog.
