Mayor Bartlett issued an executive order today lifting Stage 1 Water Usage restrictions for City of Tulsa water customers. Tulsa water customers include residents in: Tulsa, Bixby, Catoosa, Glenpool, Jenks, Owasso and surrounding water districts. 
 
Stage 1 Voluntary Restrictions were implemented on Tues., July 31 when the City of Tulsa used 198.09 MGD of water on Sun., July 29 and used 207.3 MGD on Mon., July 30, reaching the triggers set by ordinance with water usage deliverability reaching 94 percent for two consecutive days. 
 

We dodged the bullet again.

The city of Tulsa used 202-million gallons of water yesterday. That is below the threshold to implement mandatory water rationing in Tulsa.

We used 204.6 million gallons on Wednesday. It takes two consecutive days of 204-million or more gallons to trigger the mandatory rationing.

Voluntary water restrictions remain in effect.
