The City of Cameron water distribution system is switching to free chlorine to do routine maintenance on disinfection equipment. This change is anticipated to last for a period of three weeks beginning Wednesday, August 23, 2017. This process is accomplished by running only chlorine as the disinfectant. The LAS (liquid ammonium sulfate) that is normally used in the disinfection process at the treatment plant will be turned off during this time. This change produces a free chlorine residual for disinfection. Residents may experience a chlorine smell and/or discolored water during this period. The LAS will be turned back on in three week’s time (Monday, September 18, 2017).
If you have any questions or concerns contact city hall.
