Golden Road Treatment Plant Back in Operation

TYLER – Tyler’s water taste and odor issues have been remedied. The Golden Road Water Treatment Plant came back online last Friday. Customers should no longer be experiencing a strong odor or earthy taste to the water. When the plant went down on February 4th, that left the Lake Palestine Water Treatment plant the sole provider of treated water. At the same time there was a spike in a taste and odor compound coming from Lake Palestine to the the plant. Now that both plants are online, the blending of the water will aid in eliminating the taste and odor issues. The city says, if you are continuing to experience strong “earthy” taste and odor in your area, you are asked to contact Tyler’s Water Service Center at 903-531-1285 to report your location.
