In a statement released Tuesday, the City of Lancaster’s Bureau of Water says people living in the region may notice an odd smell and taste to the tap water coming to their homes but emphasize it is still safe to drink.
"We are still meeting or exceeding all standards for water quality," said Stephen Campbell, director of public works for the city of Lancaster.
City leaders say the odd smell and taste is due to an algae bloom in the Conestoga River that accounts for about 40% of the bureau’s water supply.
They add the bureau’s filtration process continues to make the water safe. However, due to the extent of the bloom, a residual taste and smell cannot be removed at this time.
