Hydrant Testing is Underway
You may see Tequesta Firefighters flowing water from fire hydrants in Tequesta. The flow
testing of every fire hydrant in Tequesta is completed by Tequesta Firefighters every year. This
helps us calculate the Gallons Per Minute available as well as assuring us that the hydrants are
functional, while allowing our personnel to become familiar with hydrant locations.
