2026 Fire Hydrant Flushing
The City of Aberdeen Department of Public Works will be performing annual water main, hydrant flushing, and flow testing throughout the water distribution system. Residents and Businesses may experience periodic reduced water pressure, discolored water, and possible sediment.
The water supply will remain safe to drink. Should you experience discoloration, first remove the aerator from sink faucets, and clean any particles from the aerator, then flush in home plumbing using cold water until clear, reinstall aerators. The washing of laundry whites is discouraged until discoloration disappears.
If any problem continues, or if you have any questions, please contact Josh Quesenbery at (410) 272-1414 during the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
