(KABC) -- The city of Anaheim experienced water pressure issues on Tuesday, impacting busy areas like Disneyland Resort and Angel Stadium.
Mike Lyster with the city of Anaheim said the drop in water pressure began around 6 p.m. He said it impacted City Hall in the central part of the city, five miles east near Angel Stadium and areas near the theme parks and convention center.
City officials said no one was ever completely without water to their knowledge, and at the peak of the issue, some places saw low pressure, with water trickling out of faucets.
The city said the issue involved a handful of Anaheim's groundwater wells and technical problems drawing water from them. Approximately 75% of the city's water comes from groundwater wells. The other 25% of the water comes from the Colorado River. They have 14 wells total, and four of them were impacted on Tuesday.
"We are offsetting the issue by using additional river water. Other wells across the city are not impacted," the city wrote on social media.
The investigation into why the four wells were impacted is ongoing. City officials say it could have been technical or mechanical. For now, the four wells will be taken offline.
At last check, officials said the water pressure was improving, and pressure at City Hall appeared to be back to 100%.
The city noted that a similar incident unfolded on Tuesday morning, and crews also supplemented the supply with river water at that time. It was resolved quickly since there is lower water use so early in the morning.
In a statement, Disneyland Resort said the water pressure issue temporarily impacted operations throughout the resort.
"Our teams worked quickly to take care of affected guests, and we appreciate their flexibility," the statement read.
