SPRING 2008 HYDRANT FLUSHING PROGRAM
Beginning the second week in April, the Deptford Township MUA operations personnel will perform our annual fire hydrant flushing. Flushing rids the water of mineral sediment, facilitates regular maintenance and ensures the hydrants are in a state of serviceability in the event of an emergency.
From April 13, 2008 to April 30, 2008, hydrant flushing will take place from 8pm to 12am. Residents are encouraged to check for possible water discoloration prior to use. If the water is discolored, it can usually be remedied by running a cold water tap for 5-10 minutes or until the water clears. Postponing laundry until water is clear is recommended.
The tentative schedule is as follows:
