Water main flushing and fire hydrant inspections

Environmental Utilities performs regular, routine maintenance to uphold the water quality and system
infrastructure by annually flushing water mains and inspecting fire hydrants.

During these operations, there may be some discoloration in the water which is not harmful to consume and will
disappear when flushing is complete. Please note that discolored water should not be used for laundry and that fluctuating water pressure may also be noticed.

Should discoloration persist beyond three hours, turn on your cold water tap or an outside sprinkler and let the
water run for several minutes until the water runs clear. 

For additional information or to confirm whether crews are working in your zone, refer to the Water Flushing Programs page on the City’s website or contact Environmental Utilities at 403-529-8176.
