Indian Ridge Trail area flushing activities

Toho Water Authority (Toho) will be conducting flushing activities starting on September 14 in the Indian Ridge Trail area. This is to enhance water appearance, odor, taste and quality. A letter was mailed to affected customers which is posted in the documents section of this page. 

The flushing activities will take from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and are expected to be completed by September 18. Schedules could vary due to weather and unforeseen circumstances. 

System flushing involves releasing water from either fire hydrants or automatic flushing devices on the distribution system. This process helps enhance water quality. Instances of lower-than-normal water pressure may occur. 

Please see more information below.

Will I notice a change in my water during the flushing activities?

During the flushing activities, you may experience water discoloration, odor, change in taste and sediment. These occurrences can usually be resolved by running a cold and a hot water tap for 15 to 20 minutes to clear out the water lines within the home. If the problem persists, please contact our Customer Service at 407-944-5000. To avoid possible staining of clothes during washing, it is advised to wash clothes in the evening or on weekends. 

Can I consume the water?

Yes, the water meets all state and federal regulations.
