Annual Fire Hydrant Flushing
The Annual Fire Hydrant Flushing is starting October 19, 2020 and will take place during the day this year.
Residents may experience water discolouration and pressure fluctuations from September to October 30 as a result of routine water main flushing to ensure the continued delivery of clean, safe drinking water. Higher flow rates have the potential of releasing particles of rust from the interior surfaces of older, cast iron water mains. Although this does not represent a health concern, residents in the affected area may experience a slight red or brown discolouration in their tap water. Customers are advised to avoid washing laundry if they notice the discolouration.
