Update on Water Discoloration
|
To assist residents with understanding this discoloration issue, the City has developed a
comprehensive FAQ
. This FAQ will be updated as more information becomes available.
The Public Works Department is addressing reports of cloudy and discolored water in some homes across certain areas of the City. In addition to working directly with customer experiencing issues, the City is working closely with the State and water experts to implement near- and long-term solutions to address the problem. Ongoing tests demonstrate South Pasadena drinking water is safe and meets United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Drinking Water (DDW) standards.
In March, the City switched from its usual groundwater supply to surface water purchased from the Metropolitan Water District (MWD). This is a temporary solution to address the requirement for the City to discontinue use of most of its groundwater supply until treatment is in place to meet a new State regulation. The City has used MWD water previously with no discolored water issues. However, it appears that extended, ongoing usage of MWD water maybe causing release of iron from some pipes.

City Passport Service Moves to Library
Residents may submit passport applications by appointment
|
The City's passport services are now available at the South Pasadena Public Library, 1100 Oxley St., by appointment only. Previously, passport services were offered at City Hall.
Appointments can be scheduled between 9 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, and at 9 a.m. or 9:30 a.m. on Mondays.
The Library is more easily accessible for residents and visitors who may not regularly visit City Hall, said City Manager Stephanie DeWolfe. "The Library is a well-known, easily accessible community resource," DeWolfe said. "From a customer service standpoint it makes sense to provide passport services from that location."
To schedule an appointment, call: 626-403-7330. Appointments must be scheduled at least one week in advance.

COLLABORATIVE PARTNERSHIP
Cities of Arcadia, Azusa, Duarte, Irwindale, Monrovia, San Marino, South Pasadena and LA Metro | 626 Golden Streets
Modeled after the thousands of "ciclovia" events that have been staged in cities around the world, 626 Golden Streets temporarily closed off stretches of roadway from South Pasadena to Azusa for people to walk, jog, skate, bike, run and play. Over 18 miles of streets, linking 6 Metro Gold Line stations, were made car-free on March 5, 2017. Eight San Gabriel Valley communities participated in the event, which was held on the one-year anniversary of the Foothill Gold Line Phase 2A Azusa extension opening.
