Water main flushing will be conducted in Mattapoisett from May 16 to June 24.

On May 16 from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and thereafter through June 24 from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Discolored or red water may be expected as well as periods of low water pressure in some areas.

Locations most likely to be effected are those south of Route 6 extending from Main Street east to Aucoot Road and including Crescent Beach, Point Connett, Hollywoods and Peases Point. Other areas may be affected due to system hydraulics.

Chlorine will be injected into the system before flushing begins and will continue for a period after flushing is completed.
