Experts involved in removing contaminants from Paradise’s water system will present findings and updates to the public this evening. 

 

Representatives of the Paradise Irrigation District will present their most recent data and describe on-going work.  


 Additionally, Dr. Gina Solomon of the Public Health Institute, partnering with UC San Francisco and UC Davis scientists will describe a new study of water being delivered to surviving homes.  

 

Water delivery lines were contaminated with cancer-causing compounds by the Camp Fire. Experts suspect plastic water meters and other components melted under extreme heat, and spread through parts of the system.  

 

Homeowners will be invited to participate in the study.  

 

Tonight’s three hour meeting at the Paradise Alliance Church begins at six.  

 

 

Paradise Alliance Church is located at 6491 Clark Road, just uphill from Billie Rd.
