Due to excessive turbidity in the Lower Little River caused by Tropical
Storm Hanna, Fort Bragg is initiating Stage IV Water conservation
measures. The water supply is fit for human consumption, however, the
water supply provided by a connection with the Public Works Commission
(PWC) can only supply a minimal amount of potable water to the Fort
Bragg system.
Residential users shall reduce water consumption to a level necessary to
sustain human life and lives of domestic pets and to maintain minimum
standards of hygiene and sanitation. Businesses engaged in the sale of
plants (AAFES and AAFES vendors) shall not irrigate use potable water
for irrigating stocks. Use of potable water on golf courses prohibited.
There will be no washing of automobiles, trucks, trailers, boats or
airplanes, or any other type of mobile equipment except at the Central
Vehicle Wash Facility. Organizations that use equipement that can not be
washed at the Central Vehicle Wash Facility, and require washing for
mission critical purposes, may obtain written permission from Fort Bragg
DPW to utilize water for such purposes as long as the amount of water
being used is minimized.
Outside areas such as streets, driveways, service station aprons,
parking lots, office/admin buildings, exteriors of existing or newly
construction facilities, sidewalks or patios shall not be washed.
There shall be no filling of any pond, ornamental fountain, pool or
other structure.
Fire protection must be maintained, but where possible, tank trucks
shall use untreated water.
Restaurants and other food serving establishments shall use only single
serving utensils, plates and cups and shall serve water only at the
patron's request.

432-8464, for additional information.
Ft. Bragg has accepted the challenge to conserve energy. The Department of Energy and the Department of Defense is running a campaign asking our miltary to conserve energy. To accept the challenge, change out your regular light bulbs to the efficient Energy Starr incandescent bulbs. This will save not only energy but money in the long run as you continue to find other way to conserve. I have already made the switch so please join me in doing the same.
Sesame Street and the cast will be coming to Ft. Bragg on October 1 & 2. Admission will be free but tickets are required. Pick up your tickets and the Ticket and Tours office in the AAFES Shoppette. Space will be limited so take time to get your tickets as soon as possible if you are interested. 
Ft. Bragg is hosting another job fair on Oct 1, 2008 for Soldiers, family members and the public. It will be held at the Officer's Club on Armistead and Totten Street from 9-2pm. There will be local and national employers on site to fill their vacant positions. Bring copies of your resume and dress appropriately and don't miss out on a great opportunity to find employment.
I received some great news today for those who leave Ft. Bragg using the All American 
Freeway. Traffic leaving Ft. Bragg will be detoured to the Gruber Road using the off-ramp and returned to the All American Expressway using the Gruber Road on-ramp. This closure will change the speed limit from 25 MPH to 45 MPH on the two outbound lanes at the All American Access Control Point. It seems like we were already going 45 mph but now it won't get you a ticket.
Drive safely and enjoy.
