City of Statesville issued the following announcement on Sept. 19.
Over the next two weeks, the Statesville Fire Department will be testing and painting fire hydrants throughout the City.
We do not anticipate any water quality issues from testing the hydrants, but if you have cloudy or dirty water, run COLD water in the bathtub for 2-3 minutes.
If the water does not clear up within that timeframe, contact the Water/Sewer Maintenance Department at 704-878-3417.
