"Cost of ALL the repairs will likely be in a the range of $1 million to $2 million (this estimate will need to defined as work continues on the emergency repairs)," Maddox wrote.

A Conserve Water Order is still in effect for those south of the Black Warrior River.

"Conservation order is still needed with repairs in the initial stages and additional rainfall will increase chances for additional slope failures," Maddox added.

Maddox also said crews are working with residents who may face service issues while crews work to make necessary repairs.
