Update:

If your water is still pink please contact 1 (609) 929-6250 so nearby hydrants can be flushed. Keep in mind that outside temperatures might effect the ability to flush if below freezing.

In the meantime continue to flush with cold water only to avoid taking it into the water heater. And the water may stain clothing so avoid running your washing machine.

The water color issue is clear at the source. If residents notice a tint to their water they should run cold water in their tub until it runs clear.

Residents of Swedesboro, be advised: We are aware of an issue with the water appearing pink in the borough. Despite the color, it is safe to use. We are currently working on the issue and will update when applicable.
