Event

The East Azerbaijan Water and Sewerage Company has announced that a planned water outage will occur in Tabriz, East Azerbaijan Province, and its surrounding areas 1200-2359 Feb. 19 due to maintenance works. Residents may experience lingering disruptions, such as low-pressure supply, through early Feb. 20.

Some business disruptions are possible in the affected areas, especially at companies that rely heavily on municipal water to maintain operations.

Pressure and quality may be poor after service resumes; run taps for several minutes before using water. Minimize nonessential water use throughout the outage.
