Notice for Garden Grove residents

You may notice a slight coloration to the water over the next day or two. This will be the result of the City conducting standard and necessary valve flushing which is done a couple of times annually. The water is still fine to use, and is safe to consume. It may however have a slight reddish brown color to it. This is a completely normal result of the flushing process. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. And appreciate your patience and understanding.
