WATER LEAK
About twice per month customer has brown water. He has to call for a hydrant flushing each time. He is getting very irritated by this inconvenience. He said this started when the plant in that area was closed.
Customer has seen brown gritty material in her water since 01/01/01. Wants to know if City water is cause. She had a water line break inside the house and had to have water turned off. Problem is likely from the hot water heater caused in that incident.
