HFD

The Hays Fire Department will be inspecting and flow testing fire hydrants on Fri., May 10, 2019 in the area of KSU AG Research Hwy 183 Bypass to Bison Rd. between 240th and 250th Ave., the area from Vine St. to Commerce between 8th St. and Reservation Rd. and the area of Canterbury to Commerce between 8th St. and 13th St.

This is part of a coordinated effort by the City of Hays to inspect all fire hydrants in the city and flush all water mains annually.

Inspecting fire hydrants ensures that the valves operate properly and that there is no damage or obstructions that will prevent or interfere with the prompt use of fire hydrants in an emergency. Firefighters are also checking the pressure and volume of water mains in each neighborhood for firefighting purposes.
