Water has been restored to full capacity on the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, although a permanent fix is about a month away.
The reservation lost about half of its water capacity when one of the pumps at the water treatment plant failed.
The pump has since been replaced with a loaner. A permanent replacement will come in August.
The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe is still asking residents to limit water usage outdoors.
