From time to time, the Insurance Services Office (ISO) collects and evaluates information from communities on their fire suppression capabilities. The ISO will then assign a Public Protection Classification to the community. Insurance companies use the Public Protection Classification for marketing, underwriting and to help establish fair premiums for homeowners’ fire insurance. Today, Mike DiMaddio, PPC Field Representative, Insurance Services Office, Community Hazard Mitigation came up to complete the testing, together with the Foresthill Public Utility District & the Foresthill Fire Protection District.

The Foresthill Public Utility District has scheduled the testing of fire hydrants tomorrow, Thursday 12/10/2020 for the Insurance Services Office (ISO). Some FPUD customers may notice variations in pressure &/or cloudiness in their water. When there is an increase or decrease in the flow or direction of the water through the water pipes, naturally occurring minerals can be disturbed, resulting in temporarily discolored water. We recommend flushing at an outside spigot. If the discoloration persists, please contact our office at (530) 367-2511.

Join us tomorrow for our Special Board Meeting.

Customer reports are very important to early detection and repair of system failures. Thank you for your efforts. ...
