Water Distribution System Flushing Program


Flushing Program
In September 2005, the Public Utilities Department began a flushing program to clean minerals out of waterlines throughout the entire water distribution system in order to protect the lines and maintain high drinking water standards.  The flushing program has currently been suspended due to the statewide drought conditions.  For more information, please contact the Water Treatment Plant at 706-613-3481.

The Athens-Clarke County Public Utilities Department is replacing an approximately 100 year-old, 12-inch water main on College Avenue with a 16-inch water main. The project is is being performed in conjunction with the SPLOST 2000 Downtown Infrastructure Project and in advance of a scheduled resurfacing of College Avenue. The work will require lane closures from time to time.
