HYDRANT FLUSHING NOTICE

Beginning the week of April 20, 2026, the Borough will be flushing fire hydrants throughout the system.

During this time, you may see water running down the street. Although it may appear to be a waste of water, this is an important preventative maintenance activity that helps maintain the integrity of the water system and allows us to continue delivering water to our customers.

Hydrant flushing is performed to remove minerals and sediment that naturally accumulate in water mains over time. This process also allows the Borough to check and record water pressure to ensure proper operation of the system.

What to expect:

Temporary discoloration of water
Reduced water pressure
Water running along streets near hydrants

If you experience discolored water, run your cold water tap for several minutes until it clears. We also recommend avoiding laundry during flushing periods, as discolored water may stain clothing.

We appreciate your patience and cooperation as we perform this essential maintenance.

2026 Mascaro Trash/Refuse and Recycling Schedule is available here.

📢IMPORTANT NOTICE – WATER/SEWER BILLING DELAY🔔 Due to the transition to a new billing system, upcoming water/sewer bills will be mailed later than usual. As a one-time courtesy, the Borough has extended the payment due date to May 13, 2026. Payments received after May 13, 2026 will be subject to penalties beginning May 14, 2026. We expect billing to return to the normal schedule moving forward. Thank you for your patience and understanding during this transition.
