City of Malibu Emergency Services

Advisory: Eastbound PCH reduced to 1 lane Sunset to Temescal beginning at 10AM Fri, 2/14 for water main leak repair

Dear Pepperdine Libboard,

Los Angeles County Public Works discovered a small leak on the 30-inch transmission main in PCH near Las Pulgas Cyn, between Sunset Blvd and Temescal Cyn. This transmission main serves LA County Waterworks District No. 29 in Malibu.

In an effort to minimize traffic impacts on PCH, emergency repair of this leak will begin on Friday morning, February 14, at approximately 10:00 AM. Eastbound traffic on PCH will be reduced to one lane during the entire repair. At this time, the repair is not anticipated to be completed until Sunday, February 16.

All water storage reservoirs in the District have been filled in an effort to maintain water service to customers during the repair work, and no fire hydrants will be impacted by the outage. However, some customers may experience lower water pressure than normal, and customers of the District are encouraged to be especially conscious of their water use during the repair to assist in ensuring continuous water supply to all customers.
