PRINCE FREDERICK, Md. – April 14, 2026 – The Calvert County Department of Public Works, Water & Sewerage Division, will begin its annual fire hydrant inspections Wednesday, April 15, in Lusby. Inspections are expected to last approximately two weeks, with completion expected by April 29.

The inspections will begin at Southern Connector Boulevard in Lusby and proceed south toward Solomons. The contractor will inspect the hydrants for proper operation, perform annual maintenance and conduct flow testing, which may result in temporary water discoloration. Residents who experience discolored water are advised to run their tap until the water clears.

The department appreciates the public’s patience and understanding during this essential maintenance. For questions or concerns, call the Water & Sewerage Division at 410-535-1600, ext. 2329.
