Council: BowSel testing largely resolved; Public Works will take over hydrant testing and repairs
The BowSel Comprehensive Water Loss Study identified potential sources; Public Works has repaired most issues, with five leaks remaining for scheduled repair. The town will discontinue BowSel services because of week-day availability conflicts and will conduct hydrant testing internally using available equipment.
The full story
Council reviewed the BowSel Comprehensive Water Loss Study, which tested the town's fire hydrants and identified potential water-loss sources. Public Works reported it has repaired most identified issues but still has five leaks slated for repair. Because BowSel's availability during the week prevented Public Works from being present during testing, the town will discontinue BowSel services and perform hydrant testing in-house using the necessary equipment. Hydrant placards indicating flow rates will be placed ahead of painting.
