> draining the reservoir so the hydrants were dry
Okay, so I've found https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-01-10/as-flames-raged-in-palisades-a-key-reservoir-nearby-was-offline and now I know what you're talking about.
I've changed careers a couple of times since I interacted with the water folks (and even then, it was usually MWD, not DWP), so I can't call someone and ask for insights. The article says it's been offline for repairs since February of last year. There's probably a years-long paper trail behind that decision. Even likely one involving the state department of water resources.- pistolero likes this.
