Water
Main Flushing in Victoria
VICTORIA, BC – Victoria’s water mains are “flushed”
annually to remove sediment and deliver high quality drinking water. Crews will begin
water main flushing on Tuesday, February 12, in the areas of Harris Green,
Oaklands, Rockland, and Foul Bay North and South (Gonzales and Jubilee).
Residents will be advised when water main flushing is due to occur in their
area.
During
this two month program, short periods of water discoloration and low water
pressure may be experienced. To prevent any staining from discolored water, run
the cold water tap in your bath or shower until the water is clear.
Commercial establishments such as laundromats,
beauty salons, and hotels and restaurants are invited to contact Public Works
at 250.361.0400 for further details and advance warning of flushing dates in
their specific location.
