Will the transition flushing that flushes the old water from the system be similar to the Fall/Winter 2021 flushing program?

Minimal customer impact is anticipated with this round of flushing. If you do notice water discoloration, run water unti it runs clear.

Four hydrants located near the reservoirs will be used for the majority of the transitional flushing.  This compares to 252 hydrants used during the 2021 flushing program. Hydrants at dead ends will also be flushed, similar to maintenance flushes typically seen each summer.
