Hingham Water Company To Conduct Night Hydrant Flushing

Aquarion is scheduled to flush water mains in Liberty Pole from 9 p.m. to 5 a.m. through Thursday night.

HINGHAM, MA — Aquarion Water Complany will be conducting water flushing for Hingham and Hull residents overnight through Thursday of this week.

The water company is flushing water mains in Liberty Pole to help ensure customers receive high-quality water.

Customers may notice episodes of decreased water pressure or discoloration of their water. Water discoloration results from temporary disturbances of the normal water flow within our piping network. These short-term changes in flow can stir up naturally occurring minerals and
sediment that settle within the water mains, according to the town.
