***FALL 2024 FIRE HYDRANT FLUSHING PROGRAM***
The Township of North Brunswick’s Fall Fire Hydrant Flushing Program begins on September 29, 2024 and continues through November.
Veolia Water in conjunction with the Township of North Brunswick will be flushing fire hydrants beginning September 29 and continuing through November. This may lower water pressure temporarily. If the water appears discolored after flushing has occurred, run your cold water until the discoloration clears. Should you have any questions, please call Veolia Water at (732) 297-7332.
General flushing occurs Sunday through Thursday, 8:00 PM – 4:00 AM. However, it may be necessary to perform some flushing during normal business hours. Should you encounter one of our team members performing this required task, please give them 20’ of space and practice Social Distancing.  We want to keep you and them safe.
***HOUSEHOLD SOUGHT FOR EXPANDED WATER SAMPLING LOCATIONS***
Continually working in the interest of public health, Veolia regularly conducts a variety of tests to ensure that water meets state and federal guidelines.
As part of that testing, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection Agency (NJDEP) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) require public water suppliers to obtain samples from customers’ homes twice a year for the purpose of lead and copper testing.
Many of you have participated in the program in our last sample program in 2022. Veolia is currently looking to expand that testing base in North Brunswick, and is asking homeowners to participate in the water sampling program.
