MWRA Advisory: Valve Exercise Maintenance in the Greater Boston Area

WHAT: During the month of December 2024, the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA) will be conducting water valve maintenance exercises in the following communities throughout the Greater Boston area: the Cities of Boston, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Medford, and Somerville, and the Town of Wakefield. This work may result in discolored water but is not expected to create any pressure losses. If the work causes discoloration, residents and businesses should run their faucets until the water returns to normal clarity (it can take up to approximately 10 minutes) before drinking or using for dishes, laundry, or other needs.

WHERE: The Cities of Boston, Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Medford, and Somerville, and the Town of Wakefield
