While conditions have vastly improved, Veolia continues to work with the Weir River Water System to add clear, treated water from our source tanks following the recent discoloration incident. Since the acute surge in demand during last week’s regional heat advisory, clear water has been working its way through the affected areas, replenishing discolored water that was flushed out by our crews working throughout the weekend.
Those flushing operations have stopped, and Veolia personnel are currently assisting individual customers who are experiencing issues within their homes.https://www.town.hull.ma.us/sites/g/files/vyhlif3286/f/agendas/memo_agenda_6_26_2024.pdf
We are diligently monitoring the source water quality, and samples have been taken from MassDEP-approved testing locations throughout the system. Veolia has taken all actions recommended by MassDEP and will continue their work to mitigate the discoloration, providing updates as additional information becomes available.
WRWS Board of Water Commissioners is holding a public meeting on Wednesday, June 26 at 2pm for an update on the status of the WRWS water quality and review of recent events concerning discolored water. The Town of Hull will also be holding their regularly scheduled Select Board meeting on Wednesday at 7:00 p.m., in which a briefing will be provided.
Any residents still experiencing discoloration over the next few days should please continue to reach out to WRWS at wrcs@veolia.com, operations@weirriverwater.com.
