Grand Canyon National Park's South Rim.

Grand Canyon National Park has implemented water conservation measures on the South Rim due to a pipeline break along the North Kaibab Trail.

That means visitors and residents are required to cut down water usage. That can be done by reducing toilet flushing, shortening showers, and using only reclaimed water for car washing.

Park officials did not say how extensive the damage was or estimate how long the outage will last, but crews are actively working on repairs.
