Sinkhole Repair

Sinkhole Repair

On August 20, 2024, the Ontario Police Department reported a sinkhole at Cedar Street. OMUC Utilities Operations staff responded immediately, ensuring that the area was securely coned off.  A sewage line pipe break, due to corrosion, had caused the sinkhole. Measures were taken to temporarily cover the hole and ensure the sewage spill was self-contained within the sinkhole. The pipe was swiftly replaced and the emergency repair was completed on August 22, 2024.

Completed Treatment Plant and Well Projects

Wells 37 &38

OMUC provides high quality drinking water to residents and businesses in Ontario. In order to accomplish this, OMUC must ensure that there is adequate infrastructure.

Completed in March 2024, the ion exchange treatment facility, supplied by groundwater wells 37 and 39, allows OMUC to provide safe drinking water. Water treatment becomes increasingly important as water quality standards become more stringent.

OMUC also recently completed the construction of well 43. Well 43 was put into operation in August 2024 and will support the increasing water demand from Ontario Ranch.

Water Quality

bottles of water

*Is bottled water safer to drink than tap water?*

Bottled water is not necessarily safer than your tap water. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets water quality standards for tap water whereas the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sets bottled water quality standards. Bottled water and tap water are both safe to drink if they meet these standards. Some bottled water is treated more than tap water, while some is treated less or not treated at all. Contact the brand's manufacturer for a complete analysis of your bottled water. 

Individuals with severely compromised immune systems and children may have special needs, and bottled water may be a desirable option. Speak to a healthcare provider to learn more about the differences between bottled water and tap water. Consumers who choose to purchase bottled water should carefully read its label to understand what they are buying, whether it is a better taste, or a certain method of treatment.
