💦Upcoming Hydrant Flushing Dates: June 8-12, 2026

Every so often, Junction City Public Works staff open fire hydrants throughout the City and allow the water to flow through the pipes. Our hydrant flushing program is very important to our water system. It is an integral part of our ongoing effort to deliver the safest and highest quality water possible. It serves the following purposes:
• It flushes sediments from mainline pipes (which enhances water quality)
• It verifies the proper operation of fire hydrants and valves
• It helps us find weaknesses in our water system
• It checks for closed valves and weak flows in the mainlines
