HYDRANT FLUSHING!

The City of Concordia Water Department will be testing and flushing fire hydrants Tuesday May 5th and Wednesday May 6th.
The annual program serves two purposes, to conduct a maintenance check on all fire hydrants in the community, and to force an excessive flow of water through the mains, which enables the Water Department to eliminate mineral deposits in the mains.
Minerals are naturally present in drinking water. Low water usage in the winter months contributes to the deposit buildup.

During the two day flush, residents may experience water discoloration. The discoloration is not a public health problem, but may be an inconvenience. Prior to doing laundry, residents are urged to inspect the color of the tap water. If discoloration is present, refrain from using the washing machine. The water will usually clear up within a day.

Flushing will begin at 6:30 am on Tuesday May 5th starting on Strain street including the North Development and then continuing south flushing all of 1st street through all of 10th street (east and west).

Flushing will begin at 6:30 am on Wednesday May 6th starting on 11th street continuing south through the south city limits.
