Chester Water Authority Uses Sprinklers on Hydrants
Chester Water Authority officers attach about forty five sprinklers to fire hydrants citywide to cool children and calm taxpayers. Sprinklers reduce water waste from illegal hydrant use and ease emergency water pressure. The board approved a $2000 donation to Boys and Girls Club of Chester, matching last year, noting public pools reduce hydrant misuse.
