Bethel Fire Hydrants To Be Flushed Starting Tuesday

From the Bethel Office Of Emergency Management

Crews with the Bethel Utilities Department will be flushing fire hydrants throughout the town starting on Tuesday, September 12th and continue in the coming weeks as part of the annual maintenance of the system. Routine flushing is necessary to provide good water quality and fire protection services.

Some customers may experience reduced water pressure or discolored water during the flushing process. If experiencing discolored water, run the cold water tap until it clears.

During periods of discoloration postpone washing clothes and limit your use of hot water until the cold water clears.
