Until park staff repair the break and water in storage tanks reaches sustainable levels, officials say the park will remain in conservation mode.
In addition to the new changes, all existing conservation measures remain in place for both the North and South rims.
The South Rim of Grand Canyon National Park will begin larger water conservation efforts as the Transcanyon Waterline undergoes repairs.
Under existing water restrictions, park staff and partners reportedly have been able to conserve water by using disposable dishes and utensils in restaurants, serving water by request only, adopting low water-use methods to clean hotel rooms, and practicing basic water conservation measures at home and work.
