Annual water flushing program

Published on December 23, 2024

Menlo Park Municipal Water has begun to conduct its annual water main flushing last week, on Thursday, December 19 and will continue through this week. This is done as part of scheduled preventative maintenance to maintain good water quality.

The process of flushing water mains may cause some disruptions, such as temporary reduction in water pressure or brown water. Customers can flush their home's water lines by running the indoor and outdoor faucets for one to three minutes until the water is clear. These temporary conditions are normal during flushing and are not a danger to the public. Please report any persistent issues with water pressure or water quality to Menlo Park Municipal Water.

For any questions or concerns, please contact Menlo Park Municipal Water at (650) 330-6750 or water@menlopark.gov.
