Cobden and Beachburg Fire Flow Testing - Nov. 15-19, 2021

Notice – Fire Flow Testing
Residents of Beachburg & Cobden
Please be advised that fire flow testing will be carried out in the Villages of Beachburg and Cobden throughout the week of November 15 to 19th, 2021.
Testing will continue over the stated period as part of a maintenance program that is necessary to evaluate the offered pressure and integrity of the water system and determine firefighting capability.
Residents within Beachburg and Cobden may experience a drop in water pressure and water may be rusty colored or cloudy due to flushing of the distribution system. If you have rust-colored water please run your COLD WATER TAPS ONLY (suggested taps: bathtub or laundry tub) until the water is clear.
Please DO NOT use your hot water until you have clean (clear) running water again.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. If you have any questions, please contact Steven Hodson, Superintendent of Environmental Services, at (613) 646-2282 ext. 127 or shodson@whitewaterregion.ca
