Mount Pulaski: Hydrant Flushing

This is an important notification from Illinois American Water.  Our crews will begin routine flushing of the water distribution system in your area 5/19/2025 through 6/6/2025 to provide you with high-quality water service. Flushing in your area will occur between the hours of 7:00am and 3:00pm daily. Flushing also allows us to test and maintain fire hydrants. When crews are working in your area, you may notice reduced pressure or discolored water. If your water is discolored, run the cold water taps only, at the lowest level of the house for about 3 to 5 minutes until the water runs clear. If discolored water occurs please also refrain from doing laundry during that time. In keeping with American Water’s focus on safety for both customers and employees, please do not approach our crews while they work.
