The Village of McConnelsville Water Department will begin flushing hydrants on Monday, April 22, 2024-May 10, 2024. Hydrant flushing will take approximately three (3) weeks to complete.
Village of McConnelsville Utilities customers are advised to check for discoloration prior to washing any clothes. If employees from the Water Department are seen working in the area, please use as little water as possible or no water for 45 minutes to ensure that the water has settled.
If discoloration persists, customers are advised to wait another 30 to 45 minutes, then run COLD WATER FAUCET ONLY until the water is clear. Flushing will remove most of the sediment of natural minerals such as iron and sulfur that are harmless but still discolor water.
