YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – The City of Yuma is notifying the community about a recent water quality notice for the water distribution system.
This weekend, a sample taken directly from the plant showed a higher-than-allowed level of chlorine dioxide, a product used in small amounts to control taste and odor in the drinking water.
The reading was slightly above the regulatory limit. Agua Viva Water Plant immediately stopped using chlorine dioxide.
Follow-up testing including nearby areas were confirmed that the water remains safe to drink.
