The Town of Okotoks wants to ensure fire hydrants are in working order if emergency were to strike.

This summer EPCOR will be performing routine fire hydrant maintenance by flushing and inspecting fire hydrants in town.

Maintenance will take place, weather permitting, from 7 a.m.- 4 p.m.

According to the Town, residents shouldn't be alarmed if they notice water in their street while testing is taking place.

It also may temporarily create cloudy water or a change in water pressure.
