The scheduled water outage today at Fort Hays State University is being postponed, due to the weather. The Hays Area Children’s Center is closed because of the scheduled outage.

Ken Jacobs, FHSU Building Maintenance Supervisor told Hays Post “The water outage was planned to facilitate the replacement of a fire hydrant where the new Heather Hall is being built (on the old Agnew Hall Site) We have to have the fire hydrant approved and finished before the additional concrete work near new dorm, can be finished,” said Jacobs

“As it turns out, we may relocate the hydrant and may be able to complete the work now without a water outage. We will give everyone plenty of notice if another outage is planned,” he said.
