A message from our Public Works department to our water customers regarding your water quality during this pandemic:

The water is safe to drink and use as always. Our treatment and disinfection process kills viruses, including the Coronavirus. The United States has some of the highest standards for tap water in the world and we consistently meet those standards.

We are thankful to our wonderful Public Works staff who does more than you or I know to protect Garibaldi and keep the water flowing and safe for all!

As said by Jim Williams the President of the American Water Works Association these staff members are:  "Rarely seen but always on the job, they are a quiet army protecting our communities in ways not fully understood. They are all essential in keeping our communities safe and healthy."
