(A) Possibly. This could be accomplished if the water from the hydrant was discharged into a water tanker truck while performing the flow test and then was withdrawn by the NO-DES unit and pumped it back into the distribution system. This has not been tested yet, but the concept is simple and NO-DES will be evaluating this task in the near future, as it provides for another opportunity to conserve water.
