We just got an inquiry from a reader about discolored water in West Concord... To update you, the town's Water & Sewer division has announced there was a main break earlier. CPW said repairs are underway, but there may be service interruptions/low pressure/brown water while it's being resolved. Their advice: "If you are experiencing discolored water, we recommend running the cold water tap for 5 minutes to clear the line into your home. If the water doesn’t become clear in 5 minutes, shut it off and wait one hour for the disturbance to settle or pass, and then try again."
