While the hydrant flushing is happening in your area, avoid doing your laundry as water may be at lower pressure than normal and rust may occur. If you experience discoloured water, please flush a cold water tap for 5 to 10 minutes. If discolouration continues, please contact us through the Report an Issue tool on our website (porthope.ca/report-an-issue) and select 'water service issue' so an Operator can investigate. Please note: Water is safe to use and consume during hydrant flushing.

We’re in the final week of the Challenge. If you’ve participated every day (or even just a few times), you’ve made space for wellness, calm and connection. That’s worth celebrating!

Here’s some ideas on how to wrap up the challenge with meaning:
• Take a tech-free hour in your backyard
• Exercise at our outdoor equipment
• Sketch or paint a nature scene at the East or West beach (skip rocks at the beach)
• Play nature bingo (spot birds, bugs, trees, etc.)
• Visit Rotary Riverside Park and read the interpretive signs
• Sit on a park bench and reflect: What outdoor habit do you want to carry forward?
