Reminder: ECUA Flow Testing Water In Beulah Today
May 9, 2024
On Thursday, May 9, ECUA will conduct water system flow tests in the Beulah area to gather information, which will assist with planning future improvements to the water system.

These effects should be minimal, with no ill effects on customers’ health or long-term adverse impacts on the system, ECUA said.
ECUA crews will remain in the test area throughout the day, flushing lines if necessary to clear up affected areas. Call (850) 476-0480 for assistance or more information.
