9/23/13 - The City of Brighton will be flushing out its hydrants beginning at midnight and running through 2:30pm on Friday. City officials urge residents on the water system to plan their water use accordingly, since the process will discolor the water and reduce the available pressure to residents near where the hydrants are being flushed. They advise that residents should not wash white or light-colored clothing between 6am and 230pm through Friday. According to a press release, residents who experience yellow or rusty water should run the faucet on cold for approximately ten minutes to clear the particles from their system. If it is still discolored after ten minutes, the process should be repeated an hour later. If the water is still discolored, they should call Acting Utilities Director Tim Krugh at (810) 227-9479.
