Town of Marion - Discolored Water Following Fire Flow Event

Formatted HTML message

The Marion Fire Department tended to a structure fire on Delano Road last night, Friday, September 20th. It is not uncommon to experience discolored water following a fire flow event. If you experience discolored water, run cold water faucet for 15 minutes until the discolored water clears. If it does not clear after 15 minutes, wait 15 - 30 minutes, and run the cold water faucet again until the water clears. Avoid using a hot water faucet until the water runs clear to avoid drawing discolored water into your hot water system. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Marion DPW Office at (508) 748-3500. We will respond to all messages on Monday, September 23rd. Thank you.
