Residents in these sections may also notice a slight discoloration of the water and a lower pressure. This is due to the flushing process and the particles that it generates. <strong>Please note that the water remains safe to drink.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Directional flushing uses the force of the water to remove silt, sand and other natural build-up inside water mains. Flowing at an optimal speed, the water picks up free particles and expels them through a fire hydrant. The flushing process will last until the pipes are clean.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your cooperation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Westmount\u2019s Public Works Department will be carrying out directional flushing to clean the City\u2019s water distribution pipes.
