Rockville Centre spring hydrant flushing

Posted

The Rockville Centre Water Department has scheduled the spring hydrant flushings for April 14 through April 20. The flushing of hydrants may cause some fluctuation in water pressure and may cause discolored water to flow into homes and businesses.
Though the water is both chemically and bacteriologically safe to drink, the discoloration could stain laundry. Consumers are advised not to schedule projects that require clear water during the entire flushing period, April 14 through 20.

  • Wednesday, April 14 (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.): The entire area of the village north of DeMott Avenue from North Village Avenue to the eastern border.
  • Thursday, April 15 (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.): The entire area of the village between Lakeview and DeMott avenues west of Long Beach Road.
  • Friday, April 16 (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.): The entire area of the village between Sunrise Highway and DeMott Avenue east of Long Beach Road.
