Neighbour reports — tap for the board
In Isiolo, piped water is rationed: in a dry spell many estates get it only once or twice a week, and the supply is cut estate by estate. This board holds two things — what neighbours are reporting right now, estate by estate, and who to call and what to do when your tap and tank run dry. Anyone can read it; reporting that the water is off in your area takes a free account.
No water cuts reported right now.

How this works
IWASCO supplies the town from three surface sources and a cluster of boreholes — about 14, of which only 8 were working — drawing on the Isiolo and Ewaso Nyiro river systems. Isiolo is semi-arid, so how much water reaches the network swings with the seasons and the drought, and rationing tightens in the dry months.
About 8 of 14 town boreholes working (Isiolo County Water Strategy, 2023).

IWASCO runs the town's piped water. The office is on Airport Road in Kiwanjani. Call to report a burst pipe or a dry line, or to ask about rationing in your estate. There is no published rationing timetable — supply is managed day to day.
