Water service to be turned off Monday

Water will be temporarily turned off between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. Monday, Sept. 12, in the Glacier View Drive, Columba and Juniper Bend residential areas off of Grandview Drive, as well as Buffalo Hills Drive, in Kalispell.

All residences and services will be affected during the project to abandon an existing water main on Sunnyview Lane.

Once water service is restored, water mains will be flushed, so residents may notice turbid water.

People also may notice trapped air in their plumbing upon resumption of water service.

Affected customers are asked to take all precautions necessary, including disabling electric power to pumps and/or other devices whose normal operation may be dependent on water pressure or water supply and which might be harmed if automatically energized during water shut-off.

If you need more information or have any concerns, contact Neumann Construction Co. at 756-0514 or the Kalispell Public Works Department at 758-7720.
