City hydrant
flushing begins
Beginning
yester-
day, Nov. 12, the City
of Florence began
conducting its annu-
al Hydrant Flushing
Program. The flushing
program will last ap-
proximately 12 weeks.
Flushing the water
main is a normal pre-
ventive maintenance
procedure to improve
water quality, safety
and test the system re-
garding fire-flows.
This program is
an important part of
the City of Florence’s
ability to provide fire
protection service and
to ensure that all hy-
drants on the system
are in good working
condition.
City of Florence
Public Works person-
nel will be flushing
the hydrants Monday
through Friday be-
tween 7:30 a.m. and 2
p.m.
The water is safe to
use during this flush-
ing period. Some areas
may experience discol-
ored or cloudy water
during this time, but
this will only be tem-
porary. The temporary
discoloration of the
water is an unavoid-
able effect from flush-
ing the water lines and
has no harmful health
effects.
If the discoloration
lasts longer than a
few hours or you have
any questions, contact
Florence Public Works
at 541-997-4106.
We would like to
