Hydrant Flushing
This is an important notification from New Jersey
American Water. Our crews will begin
routine flushing of the water distribution system in your area, Monday, April
17th, through Friday, April 21st , to provide you with high-quality water
service. Flushing in your area will occur between the hours of 730am and 4pm.
Flushing also allows us to test and maintain fire hydrants.
When crews are working in your area, you may notice reduced pressure or
discolored water. If your water is discolored, run the cold water taps only, at
the lowest level of the house for about 3 to 5 minutes until the water runs clear.
If discolored water occurs please also refrain from doing laundry during that
time.
In keeping with American Water’s focus on safety for both customers and
employees, please do not approach our crews while they work. For more
information and to see a map of the affected area please go to

We apologize for any inconvenience, and thank you for your patience and
understanding while we undertake this necessary maintenance of the water
system.
