Beginning January 15, 2025, the City of Ferndale will undertake a water main flushing operation, a critical process to maintain the integrity and quality of the municipal water supply. This maintenance activity is designed to clear out sediment and improve water clarity and pressure for residents. During the flushing period, residents may experience temporary changes in water pressure and discoloration, which are typically short-lived. The city strongly encourages residents to prepare by storing water for essential uses and avoiding laundry during flushing times to prevent staining. Effective communication about such operations is vital for fostering community awareness and minimizing inconvenience.

This flushing operation is part of the city’s broader commitment to ensuring the health and safety of its water infrastructure. By keeping the public informed, Ferndale aims to enhance community trust and cooperation. Residents are advised to stay tuned for further updates as the date approaches.
