The Kenton Fire Department will be flushing hydrants in Ward 1 this week.

Residents might notice some discoloration in their water, but that is normal, and you can run the cold water tap until it clears up.

A slight drop in water pressure is also possible while hydrants are being flushed which should return to normal shortly after the process is complete.

To avoid any possible staining, refrain from doing laundry during flushing hours so check your water for clarity before using it for washing clothes.

Flushing is crucial for maintaining high-quality drinking water.

City officials noted that the water remains safe to drink during the process.
