Important Town News!

 

 FIRE HYDRANT FLUSHING

We will be conducting a hydrant flushing from September 30 – October 1, 2024.

Hydrant flushing is an important process that helps clean the water mains, measure hydrant flows,

and assess the mechanical condition of our fire hydrants.  During the flushing you may notice some

discoloration in your drinking water. However, the water is safe to drink. To clear discoloration,

run cold tap until the water runs clear. Be sure to check your hot water for any discoloration

before using it for laundry. You may also experience a temporary low water pressure during

the flushing.

            Thank you for your cooperation in this process.
