During regular and routine testing, recent samples collected from West Palm Beach's water treatment process exceeded compliance for turbidity (cloudiness) units.  The Town of Palm Beach receives its drinking water from the City of West Palm Beach.

Turbidity does not cause health effects.  If you have a severely compromised immune system, have an infant, are pregnant, or are elderly, you may be at increased risk and should seek advice from your healthcare providers about drinking this water.

For more information, contact the West Palm Beach Public Utilities Laboratory Manager by calling (561) 822-2269.  You may also review West Palm Beach's entire public notification regarding this matter.
