City to begin hydrant tests today
Tuesday, May 10, 2011
The Cape Girardeau Fire Department will test fire hydrants in the city in the coming days. Customers may notice discolored water and a drop in water pressure while the tests run. Pressure should quickly return to normal. Let water flow for a minute and it should run clear. These tests -- which start today and last through May 21 -- are regular maintenance for the city's hydrants.
