The city of Pomona is committed to upholding the integrity of our water system by proactively addressing issues such as stagnant water and sediment buildup in our dead-end lines. Our dedication extends to adhering to the stringent standards set forth by the California Department of Public Health, ensuring that the water quality in our entire service area remains consistently high.

As you observe our dedicated crews conducting water line flushing in your neighborhood, it's essential to understand that this process requires the water to flow at its maximum velocity. This high flow rate is necessary to effectively cleanse the distribution pipelines. Unfortunately, due to the velocity involved, the water cannot be captured and reused. However, rest assured that we employ industry best practices to minimize water usage during this essential maintenance procedure.
