There's been other responses here pointing out that municipal water delivery pumping probably isn't a large electricity consumer, but it's also worth noting that even if it was you can't voluntarily shutdown water-delivery in large distribution systems - you have to maintain pressure and flow to prevent back contamination of the system from leaks. It's why you get boil-water advisories when there's a general outage - because dirt and bacteria can get back into the pipes and it takes time to be sure they've been flushed out of the system.
