Hydrant Flushing

April 23, 6:30 AM - May 25, 3:00 PM

Concord General Services’ Highway and Utilities Division will begin flushing hydrants on Monday, April 23, 2018. Flushing was originally scheduled to begin on April 16th, but was delayed one week due to weather conditions. This is part of required routine maintenance to clear any sediment from water distribution pipes. For the next several weeks, crews will be flushing hydrants in different scheduled areas throughout Concord to improve water quality and check water pressure. Concord water customers may experience low water pressure and discoloration when flushing is occurring in their area. If discoloration occurs, customers should run their tap water on cold until the water runs clear. Residents should avoid doing laundry during their scheduled flushing time. A new hydrant flushing schedule will be posted online each week for water customers to find when flushing will occur in their area. Find hydrant flushing schedules and more information at www.concordnh.gov/springoperations.

Spring Leaf Collection

April 23, 7:00 AM - June 2, 3:00 PM

The City of Concord’s Spring Leaf Collection begins Monday, April 23, 2018 and will continue for six weeks through June 2, 2018. Concord residents with curbside trash and recycling collection can place an unlimited amount of leaves and grass clippings curbside by 7:00 a.m. on their trash collection day for collection during the program. Leaves should not be raked freely to the curb as this collection method is only during Fall Leaf Collection. Leaves must be placed in biodegradable yard waste bags or labeled rigid containers. Unacceptable items, including plastic bags, will not be accepted. Concord residents may also bring their leaves to Gelinas Excavation & Earth Recycling Center for free (with proof of residency) if the load is smaller than a non-commercial pick-up truck. Please visit www.concordnh.gov/leafcollection for more information.
