Mechanical problems fixed after Palm Coast water shutdown

Chlorine levels back to normal

PALM COAST, Fla. – Operations are back to normal at City of Palm Coast’s Water Treatment Plant and testing shows chlorine levels are back to normal.

The plant, which serves southern Palm Coast, was shut down for several hours Thursday after a mechanical problem caused the level of chlorine to go too high. The problem has been corrected.

Water supply in the City was not disrupted, as customers normally served by the affected Water Treatment Plant  received water from Palm Coast’s two other water treatment plants instead. There is no need for customers to boil their water at this time as it is safe to drink straight from the faucet.

The Utility Department says water levels in the storage tanks at all three plants are recovering nicely and no further issues are expected.

Customers who have any questions may call Palm Coast Customer Service at 386-986-2360.
