A water warning took effect in Waverly on June 3. On June 28, a water emergency began as drought and high water use continued, allowing the level of the towns' wells to fall.
Waverly's mayor also proposed an emergency water rate to further lower water use because voluntary restrictions were not saving as much water as desired.
