Laurel Fire Department Annual Hydrant Testing

Posted on: April 1, 2021

The  Laurel Fire Department  will be doing  its annual hydrant testing beginning on 04/05/21 -05/21/ 21  Monday thru Friday 0700am -200pm.

Here is a few things I would like for you to remind the citizens to be aware of  when they see the Fire trucks and fireman out in the neighborhoods doing the testing to remember.

 

1. Stay a safe distant behind the fire trucks because they will be making sudden  and frequent stops.

  1. Do not drive through the  high pressure water that is being discharged ,it can shatter windshields.
  2. The streets will be wet in the neighborhoods  so drive carefully.

4.If you are  experiencing a loss of  water pressure or discoloration it  is normal during this process  and  will only last a few minutes.

 

We appreciate your patience and understanding  and we will try  our best to make this process  as less of  inconvenience as possible.

Thank you,  Fire Chief Leo Brown
