Annual Flushing Program Continues

To ensure water quality, Tuolumne Utilities District (TUD) will continues its annual flushing of the water distribution systems. This flushing of water lines occurs every year and will run through April 2010. The reason for the flushing is to clear out any sediment or minerals that may accumulate in pipes on an annual basis. TUD maintenance crews will flush between 8am and 3pm.

Please note, when TUD is flushing the water lines, we offer the following recommendations:

• Don’t be alarmed if you observe substantial volumes of water flowing in drainages or alongside the road. This is typical for flushing.
• You may experience fluctuations in service pressure.  If pressure problems persist, please contact the District.
• While flushing is occurring, we recommend not doing laundry and try to limit your water use in order not to draw this water into your household plumbing.
• If you have cloudy water after the water lines have been flushed, please turn on an outside hose bibb in order to flush your service line prior to where the water enters the house.
