Pacific Gas and Electric Co. is closing the Main Tuolumne Canal ditches and flumes for routine annual pre-winter maintenance. The canal conveys 95% of Tuolumne Utilities District’s drinking water supply, prompting TUD to ask its customers to conserve water from October 9 through October 18. Areas relying on Columbia Ditch, San Diego Ditch, and Matelot Ditch will be affected until October 21.

The closure requires Tuolumne Utilities District to rely on storage tanks and limited-capacity groundwater wells to meet demand. This maintenance is complicated by previous damage sustained during a winter storm and strengthening El Niño forecasts.
