Is the City of Seattles request for a hydrostatic test unreasonable?
Hydrostatic tests are a common sense tool to validate the structural integrity of a pipeline. Since the Bellingham explosion, Olympic has performed this safety test for the residents of Bellingham, Renton, Woodinville, Bellevue and Redmond. It is not unreasonable to ask for the same level of safety tests for the citizens of Seattle.
