Water Quality

The City of Camarillo would like to assure its water customers that the water is safe to drink and can be used without restriction, as usual. The fire did not damage equipment or impact the Desalter treatment facility. Camrosa Water District has also assured customers that their potable water is safe to drink with no water quality issues.

Unsafe Water Alerts

When neighborhoods are impacted by wildfire, critical infrastructure can also be impacted. Water systems can lose power or sustain damage. There is also the potential for the chemical Benzene to leach into the water system from materials burned in structures and pose health risks. Three water purveyors were impacted by the Mountain Fire and have issued unsafe water alerts to their customers. As areas are repopulated, potable water may not be readily available through the tap. All three companies are working diligently to restore full capacity, make repairs, flush systems and send samples to independent laboratories to ensure the water meets requirements set by the State Water Resources Control Board. As soon as lab results confirm the water is safe to drink, the unsafe water alerts will be lifted. This could take anywhere from several days to a week, depending on system needs and laboratory testing. Please see below for details for each water purveyor. 

The following water providers have issued Unsafe Water Alerts to some or all of their customers:

California American Water

California American Water has issued an Unsafe Water Alert to its customers, advising them that the water is not safe to drink or boil. Available water may be used for limited purposes as outlined in the advisory. Potable water will be delivered to impacted customers until the unsafe water alert is lifted. For more information, call 866-269-2837.

Pleasant Valley Mutual Water

Pleasant Valley Mutual Water Company has issued an Unsafe Water Alert to its customers, advising them that the water is not safe to drink or boil. Available water may be used for limited purposes as outlined in the advisory. For more information, call 805-482-5061.
