Water Line Flushing Still Going On In Hoquiam

During the work, crews will also be checking fire hydrants and while the work is going on in your neighborhood, you may experience low water pressure.

A reminder about water line flushing that’s still going on in Hoquiam. The public works department started the annual preventative maintenance work in mid-October on some 60 plus miles of water pipes. During the work, crews will also be checking fire hydrants and while the work is going on in your neighborhood, you may experience low water pressure. The work is done during the day and afterwards there may be a brownish color coming from your faucets. City officials say they is just the sediment stirred up by the flushing process and it should clear up after running water for a few minutes. The flushing should finish up by the end of November.
