(April 7, 2016) The water and wastewater division of public works will begin its semi-annual program for flushing waterlines in Ocean Pines, River Run, Pennington Commons and other areas of the county during April.
The purpose of this program is to remove any accumulated sediment from the lines, and to ensure the hydrants are operational. Below are the proposed dates for the flushing of the waterlines. These dates are subject to change.
OCEAN PINES
Week of April 4 – Sections 2, 3, 7, River Run, and Showell Elementary
Week of April 11 – Sections 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, and Harbor Village

If area residents notice that their water becomes cloudy during these times, allow the water to run for a few minutes until it becomes clear. For more information, call the Water and Wastewater Division at 410-641-5251.
