Tap water color (938 words) |
 | Unusual water flows are commonly caused by a broken water main, the Water Board repairing/replacing a water main, a fire hydrant being knocked off its base due to an automobile accident, or by someone operating a fire hydrant nearby. |
 | Water that is being discolored by rusty pipes is not a health hazard, however, it is an indication that pipes are corroding and they can eventually begin leaking. |
 | The water is discolored at all of the water faucets on the property and does not clear or improve after the water has been run for several minutes. |
| Brown Water Audit Report (2823 words) |
 | Brown uses an average of eight hundred thousand gallons of water a day, an amount greater than the volume of the swimming pool in the Smith Swim Center. |
 | Furthermore, one of the problems with paying for and studying Brown's water use (and surely one of the larger problems facing an auditor) is that some of the meters on campus are inaccessible. |
 | Brown's use will probably be comparable; while it does not air condition the dorms, the medical and laboratory buildings place a heavy load on the cooling towers. |
