#DYK If a water hydrant is illegally opened, it can contribute to a water main break. It also wastes a huge amount of water. Depending on the level of pressure, 1,000 gallons of water can be released per minute. If a hydrant is open all day, over a million gallons of water could stream out! This summer, keep them closed and report any open hydrants to us or 911.
