The City of Trinidad restored normal water service earlier this month after a major water main leak caused a multi-day disruption and a temporary boil water notice.

City officials reported that the incident began on January 3, 2026, when a large leak led to pressure loss and drained water storage tanks. As a precaution, residents were advised to boil or use bottled water while emergency repairs and system flushing were completed.

Following multiple rounds of laboratory testing, officials announced on January 7, 2026, that results showed no bacterial contamination. Based on those findings, the boil water notice was cancelled and normal tap water use resumed.

What residents should know

  • Tap water is now considered safe for everyday use
  • Some water conservation measures may remain in place as storage tanks recover
  • Ongoing monitoring continues as part of normal system operations

Local officials encouraged residents to follow any additional guidance issued as the system fully stabilizes.
