The City of Delta is now conducting its annual water main flushing.
According to a news release from the city, the flushing process may result in “dirty water” showing sediment and discoloration. Residents and property owners experiencing dirty water are advised to run the cold-water tap at the highest point in their premises for approximately 20 minutes, or until it clears.
