Hydrant flushing during August

The Village of Ada has the following announcement for water customers and users:

August is hydrant flushing month here in the Village. Beginning August 8, 2022, we will be performing our routine hydrant flushing.

During this process there may be a slight discoloration of the water caused by sediment or rust being flushed from the water mains. Households experiencing this should not be alarmed. The water will clear up once it is run for a short time.

Should you experience rusty colored water, we suggest you run the cold water from the faucet nearest to the water meter to flush the service.
