Sent by Lara this afternoon: “We’re getting brown water at 42nd Ave SW and Charlestown. It might be a result of the construction across the street, hard to tell. We’ve had SPU trucks on the block for the last few weeks as well.” Most common reason: Hydrant testing. If brown water happens in your home/business, be sure to report it to Seattle Public Utilities at 206-386-1800, and let us know too!
