We are aware of current Taste-and-Odor concerns, due to a high-level of naturally occurring algae in our reservoirs. We are working to address, but customers should remain confident that their water is safe to drink.
For more information, please read our "Frequently Asked Questions."
Right now, we’re seeing higher levels of a naturally occurring compound called MIB (Methylisoborneol) in our reservoirs. MIB comes from certain types of algae that grow in lakes and rivers—especially during stretches of hot weather and low rainfall. It can create an earthy or musty smell or taste, even though the water is still safe to drink.
