Beginning Monday, April 8, Centralia Public Works Water Department staff will begin flushing all fire hydrants throughout the city in a process that will take approximately three weeks, according to a city news release.
Hydrant flushing is a preventative maintenance process that’s done twice a year to bring fresh water into the lines.
“During this process, the City of Centralia’s water is safe to drink,” the release stated.
Water department staff will spend about a day in each neighborhood flushing the hydrants throughout the three-week process.
