Fall Hydrant Flushing - September 27 - October 26
Hydrant flushing will begin in neighborhoods served by City of Bowie Water Service starting Monday, September 27, 2021 and will take place Monday through Friday from approximately 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. in accordance to the Fall 2021 Hydrant Flushing Schedule.
Some discoloration of your water may occur and clothes washing is discouraged when flushing is taking place in your neighborhood. If your clothes become discolored, keep them wet and re-wash them using a rust remover. Rust remover will be available, at no cost, from City Hall and Public Works offices.
The water is safe for drinking and bathing even though it may be discolored. The discoloration should clear in approximately 24 hours. However, since the water mains are all interconnected, flushing of fire hydrants could affect adjacent areas to the scheduled sections as well.
For more information, visit https://www.cityofbowie.org/flushing or contact Carissa Sullivan at csullivan@cityofbowie.org or 301-809-2339.
