NOTICE OF SPECIAL MEETING
District operators are responsible for the operation and maintenance of water distribution and wastewater collection infrastructure as well as all buildings, vehicles and all supporting facilities owned by the District.
Companies heavily advertise their "flushable" wipes, but plumbers make a lot of house calls that involve clogged toilets, backed up sewer lines, and flooded basements caused by moistened wipes. Most wastewater experts will tell you that there's no such thing as a flushable wipe. Flushable wipes may flush down the toilet just fine, but so will your keys, phone, or jewelry.
While clogs can develop from any number of items, plumbers will now tell you that one of the most common causes of clogs today are moistened wipes (non-flushable and flushable).
It might be painful to watch clean drinking water bursting from a hydrant to be squandered into the street, especially with 100% of the state officially in a drought, but there are vital reasons for this. Besides being necessary to maintain high water quality, hydrant flushing assures that hydrants are in proper working condition in the event of a fire.
According to the August 4 update from the National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS), 26.6% of Colorado is in an extreme drought, 32.2% is in a severe drought, 27.1% is in a moderate drought and 14.1% of the state is abnormally dry.
