The Long Beach Twp. Water Dept. will conduct its annual flushing of the distribution system from March 31st to the end of May, 2008. We are presently in the process of the annual flushing.
A temporary slight discoloration of the water and a decrease in water pressure may be noticed as a result of the opening of fire hydrants. This discoloration 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.
