UPDATE ON WATER QUALITY ADVISORY FOR FOUNTAINGROVE AREA
On November 10, 2017, Santa Rosa Water issued a Water Quality Advisory for an isolated area of Fountaingrove due to contamination that was caused by the October fires. In collaboration with State Water Board Division of Drinking Water and US EPA regulators and water quality experts, Water Department staff has conducted a thorough investigation to confirm that the fire caused the contamination, identify the sources of the contamination, and guided by the data, determine that targeted replacement of the system would likely restore water quality. The City has completed replacement of all water service lines and blow off valves within the Water Quality Advisory Area and is finishing up targeted replacement of portions of the water system.
Staff will provide the City Council an update on the water quality advisory, including a review of the data, an update on the repair, and the plan for lifting the advisory.
