Annual Water Line Flushing Now in Progress . . . 

• This is a 6-week process from 10pm to 8:30am, Sunday thru Thursday.
• The actual flushing process causes very low water flow, but should return to normal when it's complete.
• The flushing of the water lines can result with dirty-looking water, which can cause an accumulation of minerals in the lines. 
• Resolution: 
• Simply run the cold water in your bathtub for about 15 minutes to push those minerals through the lines. 
• Please be sure that your water is clear before running hot water or any appliances.

Yes; the City of Keizer’s water is completely SAFE to consume from the City's wells up to your meter, even when it is dirty-looking or brownish in color because the City of Keizer has testing programs in place at the municipal wells. Dirty-looking water is generally minerals that have been stirred up but it could also be from something wrong with your pipes.
