The Long Beach Water
Department will conduct its annual flushing of the distribution system from:
MARCH 29, 2010 TO THE END OF MAY 2010
A slight discoloration of the
water and a decrease in pressure may be noted as a result of the opening of
fire hydrants. This discoloration is temporary, is not harmful and will clear
up if you let your water run for a short time.
We apologize for any
inconvenience this may cause, but by flushing the system we improve the quality
of the water delivered to our customers.
Customers are also encouraged
to check for discolored water before doing laundry or washing dishes.
We thank you in advance for
your cooperation.
