Also, please do not use the hot water, it does not harm the hot water tank but does take longer to empty out. The area near Post Office Square on Milk Street near Broad Street was flooded with water while temperatures were in the teens Tuesday morning, creating icy conditions. The Department of Public Service, 1600 N Campbell Rd, has a product, at no charge, that will take out the stain. Public Service is open M - F 7:30 a.m. A water main break on Milk Street in Boston sent a steady stream of water through the streets on a frigid cold Tuesday morning. We ask that you do not do the wash as it could discolor the fabric. Once the water is clear you may return to normal use. Please try the cold water faucet closest to the meter (usually in the basement) and let it run for 20 seconds, if the water is still discolored do not use the water for 30 - 45 minutes and try again. To speed the process we ask that you DO NOT use the water (this keeps the sediment stirred up). After work is completed the sediment will settle down. Residents east of the train tracks lost water service until. when a state Department of Transportation crew began filling the hole to bring the road back. MANCHESTER A water main near the train tracks on Summer Street that broke Friday night was repaired by early Saturday. However, please do not do any wash or run your hot water (see below). Wednesday morning in front of the Lewis County Health System on North State Street/State Route 26 in Lowville required digging down about 6 feet into the road to reach the rupture.

The water is safe to use, but if you are uncomfortable you may boil for 10 minutes. Above is an example of sediment in an old pipe. A main break occurs any time water begins escaping from a main (the underground pipe that distributes water throughout the Village). Please wait while we gather your results. If you experience discolored water it's usually due to sediment being stirred up when there's a large draw of water, either from a water main break or a fire hydrant being used. To report a water main break please call Milwaukee Water Works 24-hour Control Center at (414) 286-3710.
