Ilion Hydrant Flushing Nov. 1–3, 2026: Overnight Schedule and Streets
Flushing runs overnight in nearly every Ilion neighborhood, so morning tap water may come out brown; check before you start laundry.

The Village of Ilion Water Department will flush hydrants overnight from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 1, Monday, Nov. 2 and Tuesday, Nov. 3, 2026, CNY News reported. There is no boil-water advisory; water stays safe and pressure stays normal, but stirred-up sediment can discolor it.

|---|---|
| Sun., Nov. 1 | South Ilion, Otsego St., Central Ave., the marina, Columbia Pkwy. and high school area, Benedict Ave., Armory St., Forge Hill Dr., First through Seventh avenues, Prospect Ave., Barringer Rd. |

The full street-by-street list is in the source article.
Tips: Run cold water until it's clear before doing laundry, skip hot water while cold looks cloudy, and fill a pitcher of drinking water the evening before. The village says dates can shift if mains need more time. Questions: Village of Ilion, 315-895-7449. WKTV also has the notice.
