After nearly two weeks without safe drinking water, 46 of the 67 Mountain View households affected by the recent water main contamination breach near Cuesta Park have been told that they are in the clear. The city is still working to return full water services to 21 homes in the area.  Mountain View announced Wednesday morning that, in coordination with the California State Water Resources Control Board, it had lifted the “boil water” notice – which went into effect on Friday, May 1 – for most of the impacted homes. The households still under the advisory are on Drucilla Drive and Carla Court, where the city is currently working on a “super chlorination” treatment process for the pipeline serving that area.
