In the event the customer would like newer information than is available, a new Flow Test Request form must be submitted indicating the request for a new flow test.

New Flow Tests
New Flow Test requests must be performed by a third party contractor under the supervision of an authorized La Crosse Water Utility employee. Upon receipt of a completed Fire Hydrant Flow Test Request Form, the Water Utility Superintendent will contact the contractor to coordinate scheduling a date and time for the test.
