We will be doing hydrant flushing this week. If you notice your water is discolored please run your faucets until it runs clear. This is common as flushing can kick up sediment.

How have you used water yet today? By brushing your teeth, taking a shower, making coffee or washing dishes? To make your daily routine possible, there’s a system designed to deliver safe, reliable drinking water throughout the community, run by water professionals whose work keeps those systems running around the clock.

The people who operate and maintain drinking water systems are trained professionals with a clear responsibility to protect public health. Their work supports homes, schools, businesses, and community services that depend on safe, reliable water every day.

Drinking water goes through several steps before it reaches your tap. Treatment, storage, and distribution all play a role in keeping water safe and reliable across our community and keeping those pieces working takes ongoing care and attention.
