Adopt a-Hydrant Program With recent snowfall- the Fire Department is asking for help from citizen to participate in the Adopt- a-Hydrant Program. There are over 4000 hydrants in the city of Bismarck and many of them can become inaccessible due to snow from around the hydrants in their neighborhood. The snow should be cleared 6 inches below all the caps and 3 to 4 feet around the hydrant. This gives firefighters the space they need to attach hoses and turn on water in case of a fire in your neighborhood. If you are a business
owner, please take time to ensure the hydrants in your area are kept clear also. To find where the closest hydrant is in your neighborhood, please click the button below. |
