City cleaning pipes to stop brown water


The brown water battle begins this weekend as city crews begin the daunting task of cleaning 2,585 kilometres of water mains in two years.
The target this season will be to clean 25%, with the remaining pipes fast-tracked for cleaning by the fall of 2016, according to the city's manager of engineering for water and waste services.
"With fast-tracking the program we will have more crews working, some longer hours," said Geoff Patton. "We're putting more crews on to get it done faster."
The roll out of this parcel of the $250,000 program, implemented after a recommendation from an independent report brought to council in January, was late by about two months.
Patton blamed the delay on the frozen pipe issue which finally came to an end this week.
The program couldn't begin while citizens were being told to run their water to avoid frozen pipes because this program requires the opposite.
"With the water main cleaning program, we tell people to turn off their water," he said. "Those two messages are in conflict so we wanted to make sure we addressed the frozen pipe issue."
