Ref: Irrigation system running off pump from lake
1) Power goes off while irrigation valve is in open position
2) Water pressure bleeds pump dry - looses prime
3) Power comes back on
4) Pump runs dry (for 36 hours in my case)

Is there any way to pipe this up so that the pump does not loose pressure or that the valves closes with power loss? I can't think of any.

Thankfully the pump seems to run fine.
