PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Date: July 20, 2020

Phone: 209-736-2181
Due to construction in the area, an unmarked water line broke in the City of Angels today, which caused a disruption in water service for customers who live on the North end of Angels Camp.
Public Works crews were able to quickly isolate the break, however, the City has issued a boil water notice for all customers out of an abundance of caution.
Once the City has conducted state-mandated bacterialogical testing and the results are negative the notice will be lifted. This usually occurs within 2-3 days.
Please note: Discolored water is a common occurrence after pipeline work. Opening and closing valves to isolate the area of repair can cause the water flow in the pipes to speed up and slow down, which dislodges minerals from the inside walls of the pipe. These minerals can cause the water to become discolored. If customers experience discolored water, they can open an outside faucet at the lowest point on their properties and run it until the water runs clear.
Those with questions or concerns about this may contact City Hall at (209) 736-2181 or email [email protected].
