San Marcos city officials say tests now indicate there are no longer high levels of lead in the city's water supply. Vicky Serrano has more on the story.
High levels of lead. That doesn't sound healthy -- especially if the lead is being found in drinking water. But San Marcos recently had such a problem, which was cause for concern for anyone wanting to drink tap water in the city. Restaurants for a time were reluctant to serve water out of fear for their customers. A waitress at the Italian Gardens says she's relieved that recent water tests show better results.

A lot of students carry water bottles on campus to cope with the heat and to quench their thirst. Theater student Nicholas Ortiz says he was unaware of the recent tests.

Tap water is just one of many options for drinking. Groceries stay stocked with bottled water, and filtering systems can be installed to help purify what you drink.
