06\/20\/16- 07\/01\/16: Water System Maintenance Program in Middle Island Area
\nFire hydrants will be opened in order to remove any sediments that may have collected in SCWA pipes, to ensure the highest quality water.\u00a0 This also checks hydrant functions and sufficient water supply for fire protection.\u00a0 During these flushing procedures, customers may briefly experience lower water pressure, discolored water and\/or water collecting in streets where maintenance is happening. Rusty\u00a0 water is primarily iron and not considered harmful.\u00a0 Let it run until it is clear.\u00a0 It should only last the day of maintenance.\u00a0 Avoid doing laundry on these days, as clothes could become stained.\u00a0 Re-washing with additional detergent and rust remover will help remove stains. Using bleach or the dryer will not help in removing stains.<\/p>\n
