Water Service
CMWD currently purchases 100% of its water as treated water from the San Diego County Water Authority (CWA). Over 21,000 acre feet of water is provided annually to about 83,000 people through more than 25,000 meters. The majority of the 434 miles of pipeline in the distribution system is fairly new. During the development of CMWD's distribution system, a tremendous commitment was made to provide adequate storage and sufficient pipeline capacity. CMWD presently has nineteen days of storage capacity at average daily demands. Total storage in CMWD reservoirs equals 247 million gallons.
WATER CONSERVATION PROGRAMS FOR CMWD CUSTOMERS
Water Wise GardenBeing located in a semi-arid climate means that Southern California is always dry - increasing the importance of conserving water. 2006 was an especially dry year throughout the Southwest United States, the San Diego region only received about 33% of its expected rainfall, compounding an already historic drought in the Colorado River. Each year water agencies rely upon the water generated from the Colorado River and mountainous regions of Northern California. With dry years in source water areas comes limited supply - water that is shared across a growing population in Southern California. CMWD is committed to increased conservation measures in its business practices and providing education and information about water supply to its customers. Residents and businesspeople are encouraged to stay informed of water supply issues and adopt water conservation measures at home and work. Saving water is easy to do and doesn't have to cost any money to a resident.
