Jackson, Mich. — The City of Jackson’s annual Fall Hydrant Flushing Program from the Department of Public Works (DPW) is set to begin Monday, September 26 and is slated to be completed Tuesday, October 11.

City of Jackson residents as well as bordering areas of Summit, Blackman, and Leoni Townships may expect some sediment and water discoloration, but the City of Jackson says this will not affect water quality. However, washing clothes while lines are being flushed is not advised. Residents may also experience a temporary dip in water pressure.
