Fire Hydrant Flushing
Release Date: April 20, 2011

FIRE HYDRANT FLUSHING  

            Flushing of fire hydrants will be done during the Spring season on weekdays between the hours of 8:00 p.m. and Midnight starting April 25, 2011 and will continue for two to three weeks, weather permitting.  Discoloration of the water and low pressure may occur in the area of flushing, however, this condition is temporary and the water remains safe to use.  It is suggested that residents be alerted to such discoloration of the water when laundering is done between these hours.

            Flushing removes sediment from the water distribution system and tests the operation of fire hydrants.  The cooperation and patience of residents is requested during this flushing program.
