A press released issued from the Metropolitan Water District today reports that normal water delivery was restored at the Robert A. Skinner water treatment plant, about nine hours after a malfunction caused temporary reductions to water agencies serving Riverside and San Diego Counties.

Full operations resumed by 6 p.m. The malfunction, which began at 9:15 a.m., caused treated water to enter an emergency outflow pipe that empties into a nearby creek.

"We are pleased both by the quick work of our dedicated staff and the close cooperation with the water agencies we serve," said Debra Man, Metropolitan's chief operating officer. "The good news is that Metropolitan and the water agencies served by our Skinner treatment plant had already developed contingency plans to handle a scenario very similar to the one we experienced today. The plan worked."

I doubt any homes or businesses noticed any outage, but I thought I'd pass it along since it's not all that far from us.
