The Department of Public Works will flush all fire hydrants in the Village of Biron. Flushing

hydrants ensures they are in good working order and helps flush sediment out of the distribution

system.

While flushing is occurring in your area, you may notice a drop in pressure or see discoloration

in your water. If discoloration occurs, let your water run for a few minutes, preferably from your

outside hose connection, and it should clear up. The water is safe to drink even if it is

discolored. If you are concerned with discoloration, you may not want to do laundry on the day

hydrants are flushed in your area. If your water pressure remains lower than normal after

flushing has occurred in your area, please clean your faucet screen to remove silt and mineral

sediment that could be obstructing water flow.

If you have any questions, please call the Village of Biron at 715-423-6580 or the

Village of Biron Department of Public Works at 715-323-2001.
