All about post-wildfire well testing All Phoenix services

Phoenix sits in the same Almeda Fire footprint as Talent. Thousands of structures lost, melted PVC service lines, and a system-wide pressure loss that triggered a boil-water advisory on September 11, 2020 (KOBI5 — Phoenix Boil Water Advisory).

RVCOG's ongoing Almeda water-quality monitoring program covers Phoenix alongside Talent, Ashland, and surrounding jurisdictions (RVCOG — Almeda Fire Monitoring). For any well in the Phoenix burn footprint that hasn't been retested in the last 12-18 months, a fresh BTEX plus bacteria/nitrate/arsenic/lead panel is the right baseline.
