The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have caused widespread destruction, leaving behind debris, ash, and other hazards. In light of this situation, officials are urging residents across LA County to take precautions regarding their drinking water.
Residents are advised to contact their local water utility company to verify the safety of the water in their homes. LA County Public Works Director Mark Pestrella emphasized the importance of this step, stating, 'Go to the website or call the number for your local water agency. They will have it posted specifically whether or not your water for your house is clean for drinking, bathing, or any of those things.'
