The Fort Pierre City Office will issue a notification when the restriction is lifted. If you have questions, please call 605-223-7690.   Dec. 15, 2025: The City of Fort Pierre is putting a water use restriction in place starting Monday (Dec. 15, 2025) at 10pm CT and continuing until further notice.
