We understand the concerns from our Summerly neighbors about the rotten egg odor in the area and want to reassure you that we have been working closely with the City of Lake Elsinore since we received the first complaint over the weekend.![]()

Over the last 48 hours, we have been conducting thorough tests to determine the source of the odor. All of our findings continue to show that the odor is not coming from EVMWD’s sewer system. Our investigations point to the city-owned stormwater detention pond near Soraya Street as the likely source.![]()

🎤 Summerly neighborhood odor complaints ![]()

We understand the concerns from our Summerly neighbors regarding the sulfur-like odor in the area, and we want to assure you that this issue is a top priority. Our staff investigated over the weekend and again today, and we found no indication that the odor is coming from EVMWD’s sewer system.![]()

We believe the source of the odor may be the 71-acre stormwater detention pond behind the development, near Soraya Street, which is owned by the City of Lake Elsinore. While EVMWD operates a pump station to manage water levels, the city is responsible for water quality and odors. The recent winds may have dispersed the odor throughout the area, making the odor more noticeable. ![]()

We will conduct an additional odor survey tonight to confirm our findings. If we identify any issues with the sewer system, we will address them immediately, though all systems are currently operating normally. We are coordinating with the city to resolve the pond odors.![]()

As weather conditions start to cool down, the amount of time to water your landscape can go down too. Consider investing in a weather-based irrigation controller (WBIC) and let the controller manage your watering schedule.![]()
