(WICS/WRSP) - The Village of Chatham will continue its water main flushing program Monday from 11:30am-3:30pm.The neighborhoods most heavily impacted include Oakbrook Estates, Wellington Estates, Spartan Lake Estates, and Ironbridge Estates.The program is part of Chatham’s ongoing efforts to maintain the water distribution system and ensure the continued delivery of quality water to our residents.During this process, residents may experience temporary changes in water quality, including the following:<ul><li>Brown, rusty, or discolored water: Flushing may disturb naturally occurring iron and manganese deposits that have accumulated in the water mains. This can cause water to appear brown, yellow, or reddish in color.</li><li>Cloudy or milky-looking water: Air introduced into the water during flushing may cause water to appear cloudy or milky. This is generally temporary, and the water should clear as the air dissipates.</li><li>Temporary reduction in water pressure: Residents may notice lower-than-normal water pressure while flushing is being conducted in their area.</li></ul><h2>What Should Residents Do?</h2>If you experience discolored or cloudy water, run a cold-water tap for several minutes until the water runs clear. If the water does not clear, turn off the tap and allow additional time for the water system to settle before trying again.Residents are advised to avoid washing white or light-colored laundry while the water is discolored, as staining may occur. If possible, postpone laundry and other activities that may be affected until the water runs clear.If discoloration or cloudiness persists, or if you have questions or concerns about your water quality, please contact the Village of Chatham at 217-483-2451.</div></body>
