July 7, 2026Valve Maintenance: July and August 2026

During the months of July and August 2026, District staff will be completing valve maintenance in the central portion of the District (see map). This work will generally be completed Monday-Friday between the hours of 8am and 4pm. Water service should not be interrupted, however, maintenance activities such as this can cause brief periods of discolored water. Should you experience this, it can usually be cleared by flushing a cold water tap for 5-10 minutes.

If the water does not clear, please notify the District at 253-631-3770.

November 19, 2025Well 9 Water Quality

The first week in November the District began an additional treatment process at Well #9 to reduce the sulfur taste and odor from this source. We have been working on this project since 2018 with the Department of Health and a local engineering firm which specializes in water chemistry. Lake Meridian Water District is proud to say that there is a substantial reduction in the taste and odor from this source.

Many hours went into this project, and we call it a success. The District is thankful for our dedicated staff and some of the best water chemistry engineers in the world.
