The city of Lawrenceville has announced that they will be flushing the water system distribution lines in the near future and cleaning the city cemetery in early April.
The flushing work is to begin on Monday, March 30th and continue throughout the week. City water customers could see some discolored water during the period. It is hoped that the discoloration will be contained to the area where the flushing is occurring. However, all customers are being advised to check their water before doing any laundry work.
