Contact our water emergency line 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: 503-823-4874
On some occasions you may be asked to leave a message when there are a lot of callers. We will call you back as quickly as we are able. During large events such as major main breaks, we often receive hundreds of calls reporting the same issue. Before calling, you can check our Facebook, X (Twitter), and blog to see if crews are already responding to the issue.
