Augusta, Here’s Why Your Water Is Cloudy

According to the Greater Augusta Utility District, the city will be flushing fire hydrants from September 21st through September 25th, 2020.

The flushing will take place between 7:30 AM and 5 PM, except Wednesday and Friday.  On those days, the flushing will start at 5 AM.

There is a chance this could lead to some people's city water to come out of the tap cloudy.  Additionally, the water could have a reddish tinge to it.

They say that any cloudiness is harmless and should settle within 12 hours.
