Frisch Elementary, Bethlehem Lutheran School closed today due to water main break
UPDATE: Frisch Elementary School at the corner Bath and Mountain streets and Bethlehem Lutheran, both on the northwest side of Carson City, are closed for today, Thursday, due to a water main break. Teachers and staff will do professional development at the school.
"It is expected that school will resume tomorrow," said Dan Davis, spokesman for Carson City School District.
Bethlehem Lutheran School in the 1800 block of Mountain Street is also closed today due to the water main break.
Carson City Public Works experienced a water main break on Bath Street between Mountain Street and Division Street at approximately 5:30 a.m. Thursday morning.
Crews restored normal water system operation as of 8 a.m. Temporary street repairs to Bath Street are currently underway and are expected to be completed by the end of business today.
Residents in the general area bounded by Ivy Street, Division Street, Long Street and Mountain Street may expect to experience discolored water through Thursday afternoon.
The discoloration is caused by naturally occurring minerals which accumulate in the water system; it is not harmful. Residents should avoid washing light colored laundry if their water is discolored.
Residents may call Carson City Public Works at (775) 887-2355 for more information.
