HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!
|
Happy Independence Day! If you're hosting a party, don't forget to secure your mylar balloons far away from power lines to prevent potential power outages, fires, and serious injuries. PWP reminds you that fireworks are dangerous and not permitted within the City of Pasadena. Instead,
celebrate the Fourth of July responsibly at Rose Bowl Stadium for the 92nd annual Americafest!
PWP offices will be closed in observance of the holiday on Wednesday, July 4, and will resume operation on Thursday, July 5. If you're experiencing an outage or emergency, please contact us at 626.744.4673 (power emergency) or
626.744.4138 (water emergency) and
a member of our dispatch team will investigate your issue.

For the fourth consecutive year, PWP invited high school seniors to write an essay describing an invention or concept that would make renewable resources accessible to all Pasadena residents. This year's winner is Alejandro Moreno from Marshall Fundamental Secondary School, who presented the idea of Plasma Gasification in his essay.
