Here is an excerpt:

To maintain high water quality in the City of Lake Worth water distribution system, the City of Lake Worth Water Treatment Plant will temporarily change the water chlorination methods for two weeks from April 1, 2018 [TODAY] through April 18, 2018.
     The City of Lake Worth will also increase hydrant flushing during this time. This is a preventive maintenance process.
     Starting April 1, 2018 a “free chlorine residual” water treatment method will be used to provide a stronger, faster acting disinfection process than the “combined chlorine or Chloramines” treatment which is normally used. The City of Lake Worth will revert back to the “combined chlorine” method by April 18, 2018.
