The St. Charles Fire Department is scheduled to perform water main flushing at 620 East Main Street on Tuesday, September 30, 2025. The process will start around 11:00 a.m. and is expected to conclude by noon the same day.
Residents in the area may notice rust in their water during or immediately after the flushing. According to officials, "The water is safe; however, you may want to refrain from doing laundry until the water is clear." In cases where rusty water causes discoloration of clothing during washing, residents are advised to keep the affected clothes wet and contact the Public Works Department at 630-377-4405 for a rust-removing solution packet.
Drivers are also encouraged to use caution when traveling through areas being flushed due to possible water accumulation on pavement.
