Prince Albert Sk -
The City of Prince Albert would like residents to take note that hydraulic flushing will start in Zone 2 on Monday, August 30, 2021. The work is scheduled to occur from 7am-7pm, Monday through Friday over the next 4-6 weeks (weather permitting).
Hydraulic flushing is done annually and Zone 1 was completed last year and will be scheduled again in 2022.
Many residences will not experience any disruption to their water service. In some cases, there may be loss of water pressure and discoloured water.
Hydraulic flushing is a process that uses water to scour waterlines to remove sediment and build-up that accumulates in the pipes over time.
For more details on the process and a list of Frequently Asked Questions that addresses issues that may arise during the process, please visit www.citypa.ca/hydraulicflushing.
