This preventive maintenance measure is necessary to ensure that valves are operational and functional in the event of a failure for isolation purposes. Advance notice to the public concerning exact work location and schedule cannot feasibly be provided. During the operating procedure, poor pressure and/or “red” water may result. This situation is temporary. The discoloured water is not hazardous but, if detected, the public is requested to simply open their cold water taps in order to clear the system.
