Announcements

The Hanson Water Department will begin hydrant flushing on or about September 21, 2015.~ Work will be scheduled Monday through Thursday between the hours of 7:00 p.m. and midnight.~ Hydrant flushing is done to remove iron and manganese deposits that collect on the walls of the water mains.~ There may be some discoloration of the water as a result of this flushing.~ The discoloration does not make water unsafe to drink but it could discolor laundry and/or plumbing fixtures.~ Similarly, when air bubbles enter the water system during the hydrant flushing, they may cause cloudiness in drinking water.~ If discoloration or air bubbles appear in the water, run cold water in a bathtub for a few minutes until the water and/or air bubbles clear up. If the water does not clear up within about 5 minutes, customers are asked to contact the Hanson Water Department 781-447-1200.~ We apologize for any inconvenience you may experience.~ ~~
