The City of Katy Water Department will be conducting hydrant flushing throughout the City next week on Monday, June 2nd, and Tuesday, June 3rd.

It’s important to note that residents in the immediate vicinity of hydrant flushing may experience temporary discoloration of their water. This discoloration is harmless and does not affect water safety. However, residents are advised to check the water clarity before doing laundry, as staining may occur.

If you notice discoloration in your water after hydrant flushing in your neighborhood, you can clear the pipes in your home by running all interior and exterior water faucets for a few minutes.

If there are any questions or concerns, please contact the City of Katy Public Works office at (281) 391-4820 or [email protected].
