SAN DIEGO–The County of San Diego, Department of Environmental Health has issued a boil water order and public notification for the Warner Springs Ranch Resort.

The water system is designed to provide potable water to the Warner Springs Ranch Golf Grill, Warner Springs Airport, Staff Housing, St. Francis of Assisi Chapel, and the Warner Springs Ranch Resort currently under renovation and not open to the public.

Recent storms caused damage to a portion of the drinking water distribution system resulting in a complete loss of pressure within the system. As a precaution, the order was issued to ensure that upon reestablishment of water service, drinking water will be free from bacterial contamination.

The boil water order will remain in effect until the distribution system has been disinfected and laboratory results confirm the absence of bacteria in the water supply.
