Notice to Lawnside Residents: Potential Drop in Water Pressure and/or Discolored Water during 3/11-3/17

Each year, New Jersey American Water flushes the pipes in our water distribution system. This is an essential part of our system maintenance program, which helps us to continue to provide you with high-quality water service. Hydrant flushing will being in Lawnside on  March 11th and continue until March 17th  .

When crews are in your area, customers may notice a drop in water pressure or discolored water. Discolored water may occur because the sediment in water mains gets stirred up when the fire hydrants are used and when the flow of water in mains changes. This is normal. If this happens, it is not harmful. Simply let your cold water run until it is clear.

We will use our phone/text/email customer notification system to notify customers before we begin flushing in the community.

Customers must opt-in to these types of non-emergency alerts by:

Log into MyWater, our customer portal, at mywater.amwater.com.

On the Alert Settings tile, click on the Edit button, which will take you to the page where you can update your contact information and preferences.
