Brewster Village Hydrant Flushing on Wednesday

This Wednesday April 20th, the Village of Brewster will be flushing hydrants within the village limits. This semi annual event is to ensure maximum pressure at all the fire hydrants within the village limits. Unfortunately the flushing disturbs sediment in the pipes which causes water discoloration. Do not run your faucets as it may disturb more sentiment and will not make the water clear up any faster and could increase your water bills. As soon as the hydrant flushing is done the sentiment should settle and the water will return to normal within 24-48 hours. Discolored water can stain clothing so refrain from doing laundry during the procedure and for 24-48 hours afterwards.
