The Salisbury Fire Department will conduct a live fire training burn on Thursday, June 6, at 1435 Bringle Ferry Road.
 
Residents in the area are advised to keep their windows and doors closed while the burn is in progress. In addition, residents may encounter the following conditions during or following a fire department live burn as it relates to water:

• A temporary drop in water pressure to your residence or place of business

Helpful Hints to Remember:
• Although the water is discolored and may look unclear or tinted, the water is not harmful or contaminated

Methods to obtain clear water more quickly:
• Open the cold water faucets and let the water flow until it is clear. Turn off the faucets
• Open the hot water faucets and let the water flow until it is clear. Turn off the faucets
• When both hot and cold water are clear, the water is ready for use as normal
• Check the faucet screens for trapped particles
• Wash a load or two of dark-colored clothes first

The fire department will do their best to avoid smoke coming toward homes and businesses. For more information or questions, contact Salisbury Fire Department at (704) 638-5351.
