The town's storage tanks were cut off from the spring that feeds the municipal water system when the main broke. The leak has since been repaired, but the storage tanks remain depleted, said Marie Owens, director of the Utah Division of Drinking Water.
On Tuesday, state officials began trucking water to the community just outside Capitol Reef National Park.
Owens said it was not clear when the water main broke, only that it caused the tanks to be drained.
