Lake levels are holding steady for the city of Sedan.

 Cooler temperatures, a little rainfall, and the continuing conservation efforts by residents have been paying off. City leaders say residents should keep up their efforts to save water and reminds water users that dish-washing accounts for about two percent of indoor water use but even small efforts help save water. Using a dish-washing machine is more water efficient compared to hand washing. While an automatic dishwasher uses about 9 to 12 gallons of water, hand washing dishes can consume up to 20 gallons. Sedan remains under a Stage 3 Water Emergency
