🚰 NOTICE FROM NEW JERSEY AMERICAN WATER 🚰

New Jersey American Water will be conducting its annual water distribution system flushing program in Egg Harbor Township beginning the week of June 1, 2026 through June 28, 2026.

This routine maintenance helps clean water mains, maintain water quality, and ensure fire hydrants remain operational.

During flushing operations, residents may temporarily experience:
• Lower water pressure
• Discolored water

If discoloration occurs, this is normal and not harmful. Simply run your cold water until it clears.

Residents are encouraged to:
✔️ Draw water for cooking ahead of time
✔️ Store drinking water in advance
✔️ Check water clarity before using washing machines or dishwashers

⚠️ IMPORTANT: If laundry becomes stained, do NOT use bleach or place items in the dryer. Rewash immediately using detergent and a rust remover product.

New Jersey American Water will issue customer notifications before flushing begins in specific neighborhoods. Customers may sign up for alerts through MyWater: https://login.amwater.com/

Additional information is available in the following New Jersey American Water flyer.
