Seasonal chlorine burnout underway at water plant
The annual summer “chlorine burnout” has begun within the City of Bowie’s water system and will continue for 30 days.
Water Plant Supervisor Jerry Sutton said the burnout began on July 23 and will go 30 days. This seasonal task usually occurs during the height of the summer heat.
Customers may notice some minor odor and taste issues with their water during this period explained Sutton as the water treatment system changes out its disinfectant.
The city water treatment plan uses a combination of ammonia and chlorine called chloramines. Sutton said over time those build up in the system and it takes a change to straight chlorine across 28 days to clear it out.
At the end of 30 days the chloramines will be added back to the system and the water should return to normal.
