VERBATIM: It marked the first day of sudden closures for overnight hotel stays after the park’s only water pipeline failed. The restrictions will run throughout the holiday, when hotels were near or at capacity. One hotel inside the park says it had to cancel nearly 1,000 reservations for the weekend. However, the park will remain open during the day.
