🚰 HYDRANT FLUSHING BEGINS MONDAY, OCTOBER 19

Routine hydrant flushing will begin Monday, October 19, starting in Area 1 (south of Crestline). Crews expect to spend approximately two weeks in each designated area, with the program anticipated to continue through the end of November.

💧 Why is hydrant flushing necessary?

Hydrant flushing is an important part of routine water system maintenance. It helps clear sediment and mineral buildup from water mains, maintain water quality and support reliable water service.

What should residents expect?

-Water flowing from fire hydrants into nearby roadways.
-Temporary drops in water pressure.
-Brief discoloration of tap water, which typically clears within a few hours.

If your water becomes discolored, run your cold-water faucet for a few minutes until it clears. Please limit laundry until your water runs clear to help prevent potential staining.

📍 Flushing will take place in three designated areas: South of Crestline, Industrial and North Town. Exact dates for each area will be shared as they become available.

For more information about the flushing locations, process and what to expect, visit www.pleasantontx.gov.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as our crews complete this necessary maintenance!
