The San Diego County Air Pollution Control District has detected elevated levels of hydrogen sulfide emanating from the Tijuana River, leading local health officials to issue a warning for residents in the area. Over the past day, there has been a noticeable increase in unpleasant odors, which the county attributes to ongoing sewage infrastructure work reported by the International Boundary and Water Commission.
Residents are advised to take precautions, especially those with respiratory conditions or sensitivities to air quality changes. The county suggests keeping windows and doors closed, using air purifiers, and avoiding outdoor activities when odors are particularly strong.
Officials are closely monitoring the situation and encourage residents to report any significant odor disturbances. The health department remains committed to ensuring public safety and will provide updates as more information becomes available. Community members are urged to stay informed and prioritize their health during this time.
