PUBLIC NOTICE – Hydrant Testing & Maintenance 

 

The City of Benton Fire Department will again be testing and maintaining fire hydrants during the summer months this year. Areas of current testing within the city can be found each week on the City of Benton webpage as well as the Benton Fire Department Facebook page. This testing process may cause your household water to become discolored. In the process of flushing & testing fire hydrants, sediments may get stirred up and pass into your water system. If this occurs, please run your cold water until the discoloration disappears. Should you have any questions regarding this process, please contact the City of Benton Fire Department at (618)439-2511
