Poolesville Fire Hydrant Flushing Information (Week of April 5th)

The Poolesville Water Department crews will begin the annual fire hydrant flushing maintenance program on April 5, 2021.

As a result of the flushing process, residents in the immediate vicinity of the work may experience temporary discoloration of their water.

It is recommended that residents refrain from washing white clothes for at least 24 hours after the flushing.
