The City’s robust water quality monitoring and testing program continues to show our drinking water meets all state and federal standards for the protection of human health. We expect the taste and odor issues to be gone soon. While the taste and odor can be unpleasant to some, MIB does not have any adverse health effects and is NOT toxic or harmful. The change is caused by an organic compound called MIB (2-methylisoborneol), which is a naturally occurring compound in soil and algae found in surface water. City of San Diego water customers may experience a temporary change in the taste and odor of the drinking water being produced at our Alvarado Water Treatment Plant.
