The first round of the City's annual fire hydrant flushing begins Tuesday, April 16, and continues through Thursday, April 18, in the following areas:

Miller’s Run subdivision north of Tylersville
Stockton Station subdivision
Northpointe Drive
DDC Way
Distribution Circle
Route 4 south of Muhlhauser Road

The City's Water Division performs hydrant flushing primarily to improve water quality by removing built-up sediment from the public water lines.

Residents in the impacted areas may experience discolored water for a short period of time during or after flushing efforts. If this occurs, residents should run water through several inside faucets for 5 to 10 minutes until the water becomes clear.
