Work May Cause Temporary
Water Discoloration in Orient Heights Area of East Boston
During the week of August 30, the Massachusetts Water Resources
Authority will be activating a water meter and a section of water
pipeline that feed the Orient Heights section of East Boston. This
work may cause discolored water for this area for up to three days
after activation.
If discolored water does occur, it will result from a small amount
of iron in the pipes. While safe for drinking, cooking and other
uses, please note that iron will stain light colored items in your
laundry, especially when bleach is used. Residents should check
water clarity before washing any white or lighter colored laundry
during this period of work. Please call MWRA at 617-305-5950 if you
have any questions.
