Re: Fire Hydrants
Dear Mr. McClary:
"J�
(407)723-2877
General Development Utilities, Inc. (GDU) currently operates
and maintains 142 fire hydrants within its service area in
Sebastian Highlands.
All water mains and fire hydrants have been installed in
accordance with plans submitted to and approved by the City
of Sebastian and the Florida Department of Environmental
Regulation.
Although we inspect and maintain all hydrants on a regular
basis, we have not been performing flow tests in order to
conserve water. Subsequent to receipt of your April 9, 1990
letter we performed flow tests on 12 hydrants in various
parts of the system with the following results:
