The Tonkawa Fire Department will be conducting Hydrant testing during the months of June and July. This has been extended due to the floods and large amount of calls. This may cause dirt in the lines. We will be doing 100 percent of the hydrants due to the new water tower. Please use caution when you see the personnel at the hydrants.
