California American Water lifts boil water notice for San Diego County District
(UI) – California American Water has lifted a boil water advisory that was in place for its San Diego County District. Customers can now consume and use their tap water normally after days of extensive testing have shown no sign of contamination.
On August 24, 2023, California American Water issued an “Advisory to Boil Water” for customers that reside in Imperial Beach, Coronado (specifically, along the Silver Strand south of Fiddlers Cove) and in portions of San Diego and Chula Vista due to a positive E. Coli result found in one of its drinking water samples. Effective Saturday August 26th at 4:36pm, the boil water advisory was lifted, and customers in California American Water’s San Diego County District no longer need to boil water or consume bottled water.
California American Water, in conjunction with the State Water Resources Control Board's Division of Drinking Water (DDW), has determined that, after comprehensive testing, the water is safe to drink in the San Diego County District.
