Residents experiencing water changes are asked to run the cold water tap in a sink until it clears.
 
Residents are also reminded to refrain from doing laundry where possible while flushing continues to lessen the likelihood of clothes becoming stained by discoloured water.
If discoloured water persists, contact Access St. John's by calling 311 or 754-CITY (2489).
The City apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause. More information about hydrant flushing is available on the City’s website at: https://www.stjohns.ca/living-st-johns/city-services/water-services/hydr...
