Eight water districts in Los Angeles County — six in the Altadena area, and two in the Palisades/Malibu area — have issued do-not-drink or do-not-use water advisories following the Palisades and Eaton fires.
Loss of water pressure during firefighting efforts can allow toxic vapors from burning homes to infiltrate service lines, compromising these water systems.
