On Thursday, the Clearfield City Facebook page posted that they are working with Weber Basin Water and other affected cities on why the water is yellow.
“In the meantime, our water team has taken water samples around Clearfield and each one has come back safe to drink,” the city Facebook post states.

According to the Facebook post, here are the known affected cities:
- Clearfield
- Layton
- Syracuse
- Hooper
- Kaysville
- Sunset
- Roy
