Water Line Flushing, March 17

During the week beginning March 20, 2017 the Coos Bay-North Bend Water Board crews will continue routine maintenance flushing of water lines within its distribution system in Coos Bay and North Bend.  Flushing of water lines will be from Newmark Avenue north to Virginia Avenue; Harrison Avenue west to Fenwick Street; Airport Lane south to Washington Avenue; Virginia Avenue south to Edwards Avenue and Seagate Avenue east to Stillwater Drive. Flushing will begin in the morning each day about 6:00 a.m. and end at approximately 3:00 p.m., Monday through Thursday.  In some locations flushing may begin earlier in the morning and end earlier in the afternoon. Customers within the affected areas may experience periods of reduced pressure and may notice a discoloration of the water during these flushing periods.  Customers should avoid doing laundry if their water appears discolored.  If the discoloration does not clear up promptly, please notify the Water Board at (541) 267-3128.
