IMPERIAL BEACH, Calif. — Thousands of people are without water in parts of Imperial Beach, Coronado, San Diego and Chula Vista.
“Put a little boiled water into a cup, so when I brush my teeth I can rinse my tooth brush,” said Beverly Bowler, an Imperial Beach resident. Many lined up at water distribution sites Saturday morning to get a case of water bottles for their families. “I boil water, then I forget to use it and grab a bottle,” said Ocie Ignacio, another Imperial Beach resident.“We’re trying to rely more on water bottles we receive from stores," Gutierrez said."His water supply is something we’re trying to figure out.“Honestly, it's kind of scary and unsafe. And not at all up to the standard of regulation and safety I've come to expect from the community,” he says.
