Load Management Equipment and Electric Meter Change-Out

IMPORTANT INFORMATION - WATER METER CHANGE OUT

Worthington Public Utilities (WPU) has resumed upgrading the remaining water meters throughout the community. WPU is partnering with Allegiant Utility Services to accomplish these water meter exhanges for residential customers. 

Current WPU water customers have received a letter that contains instructions on how to schedule an appointment to get your water meter exchanged. There are multiple options available to schedule an appointment.  If you have not already done so, please respond promptly using one of the options.

WPU greatly appeciates our customers' cooperation in getting this project accomplished. If customers have any questions about the project or the process, please contact the WPU office at 372-8680.





 


SMOKE TESTING

The Worthington Public Utilities Wastewater Department will begin smoke testing of sanitary sewer lines in the city on September 30. Testing will continue for approximately 3 to 4 weeks.

Testing will occur in all areas located east of Diagonal Road, Tower Street, Lake Street and South Lake Street and west of Highway 59 and Humiston Avenue and south of Okabena Street to 1st Avenue.

Some smoke may enter residences or businesses through dry plumbing traps and may be avoided by running water in the traps of floor and shower drains prior to the above time period. The smoke is visible, has an odor, and is generally harmless. However, it may in some cases cause respiratory irritation. Ventilating the area by opening windows will cause the smoke to dissipate rapidly. Please call 372-8680 if you observe smoke in your home or business or have any questions regarding this program.

This testing is being performed as part of an ongoing program to improve your sanitary sewer service. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
