Covering Coastal Douglas County:

The Reedsport Fire Department will be performing water system/fire hydrant flushing on all streets on the north side of Highway 101 from 16th Street to Port Dock Road. Work will start on Thursday and should be completed by Friday.

All residents and system users are advised that there may be a temporary drop in water pressure during the system flushing process. After flushing is complete, there may be a milky coloration in the water. These are bubbles and will resolve shortly. There may also be a small amount of sediment that may be present due to flushing operations.

If either of these conditions are present, users should reasonably run water until the conditions improve.

Anyone with questions should contact the City of Reedsport Public Works Department at 541-271-2809.
