I am not buying the "low water tables" above at face value. Riddle Farms and Ocean Pines have water sources from two different aquifers. That said, the County has perhaps hooked up Riddle Farms to the OPA wells, something I warned about years ago that might impact OPA water supplies. We need more information.

“In addition to the low water levels, electrical issues caused two well pumps in Ocean Pines to fail, which has resulted in low or no water pressure in certain areas,” Public Works Director Dallas Baker said.

My guess -- those pump failures in OP are the primary problem if not the only problem causing low pressure in Ocean Pines.

The low water pressure began yesterday. A notification from the County should have happened earlier.

The OPA Board of Directors should ask Worcester County for details as to EXACTLY what is going on with regard to Riddle Farms receiving water from wells in Ocean Pines.
