Time for a spring refresh 🌱 Starting March 23, DC Water will begin its annual system maintenance, including a temporary switch from chloramine to chlorine through May 4. This routine process helps clean water mains, support overall water quality, and keep the system running strong year-round. You may notice a slight change in taste or smell during this time. That’s normal, temporary, and safe. This work is routine and separate from the recent Potomac Interceptor sewer line collapse. That event involves a different system and does not affect drinking water lines that serve homes.
