The town of Medora will flush fire hydrants beginning at 8 p.m. Sunday.

Flushing hydrants is designed to increase flow through water delivery systems by “flushing” minerals and other deposits through the system.

Residents should avoid using water to bathe, shower or wash clothes during the scheduled maintenance, which should be completed later that night.

There should be no interruptions in water service, but water may appear slightly discolored.
