We have verified with our chief water treatment plant operator that Roseville’s water quality meets all regulations to ensure the safety of our drinking water resources.

While we do not treat for discoloration of water, we are looking at ways to mitigate against the color change. And as the runoff reduces, the color of your tap water will change back to what you’re used to seeing.

If you have questions or want more information, please contact customer service at (916) 774-5750.
