Plainfield customers of Indianapolis Water may notice slight discoloration

Hydrants will be flushed during ten-day period

INDIANAPOLIS, March 9 – Veolia Water Indianapolis, LLC (VWI), the day-to-day manager and operator of Indianapolis Water, will be flushing approximately 35 fire hydrants in the Plainfield area between March 10 and March 20, 2009.

Hydrant flushing will take place during normal business hours in the area bounded by:

• County Road 100 S on the north
• County Road 300 S on the south
• County Road 800 E on the east
