Background: <br /> South Bend Water Works maintains more than 576 miles of water mains and 5,500 fire hydrants <br /> throughout their water distribution system. "We provide on average 14 million gallons a day in <br /> the winter and it is not unusual for us to pump over 30 million gallons a day in the summer," <br /> Tungate said. <br /> The flushing program has two goals: <br /> • To remove unwanted iron and manganese sediment from the water mains. <br /> • To verify the proper operation of fire hydrants. <br /> Interviews: <br /> Dave Tungate, Director of Water Works is available, today and Monday,to answer any <br /> questions or to further explain this important, Clean City program. <br />
