The water coming out of my tap is a yellowish / brown color. What should I do? Is the water safe?
Although we strive to deliver the best quality drinking water that meets all standards, discolored water is not generally a health concern, nor uncommon in public water systems. Water discoloration may be caused by several reasons. If you experience these types of concerns, please call the Apache Junction Water District office at (480) 982-6030.

We recommend that you report all concerns about our water to AJWD. Although the water may be discolored it is safe, and meets drinking water standards. You may run your outside faucet until the discoloration clears up. If the problem persists, or you prefer, please call AJWD for assistance.
