California American Water Asks Sonoma County Customers to Reduce Water Use During Water Treatment Plant Maintenance From June 7 Through June 9

SANTA ROSA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--California American Water’s Larkfield Water Treatment Plant will be undergoing maintenance from Tuesday, June 7 through Thursday, June 9, 2022.

Dependent upon the project progress additional request for conservation may occur in the next week. Should that need arise additional communication will be provided.
