Spring Hydrant Flushing Begins April 15

* Hydrant flushing is necessary:

* to help the City maintain its system

* ensures the City provides safe, drinkable water to residents 

* the EPA recommends performing hydrant flushing twice a year

* What to expect: 

* a slight chlorine taste and smell to the water might be noticeable during the two-week period prior to scheduled flushing. This is normal and poses no health risk 

* cloudy or discolored water, or even sediment in water, may be observed for a short period of time. This is normal during hydrant flushing

* open faucets and let the water run to help clear this up  

* water will be safe to drink during this time even if it may look different
