San Juan Water District

Our water begins its journey in the Sierra Nevada, travelling along the North fork of the American River before reaching Folsom Lake. Learn more about our water source and quality at https://lnkd.in/g8JV2V7Y.

Our top priority is to provide the highest quality water at the lowest reasonable price to our service region! We’re proud to report that our wholesale rates are the lowest in the state, and our drinking water meets all state and federal water standards. You can learn more at https://lnkd.in/grxHy5ri.

Senator Anna Caballero weighs in as we work today to get her bill, SB 366, passed by the Assembly policy committee. As she notes, California has targets for GHG emissions reduction, renewable energy, housing, and even for natural landscapes - but none for water supplies, which are essential for people, farms and industry and the environment. SB 366 will rectify that problem. https://lnkd.in/gZ54C8ey

A layer of mulch is an excellent way to keep your landscape healthy while reducing how often you need to water — which is why we’re proud to announce that despite the cold, rainy weather our Mulch Madness giveaway was a success! We were able to distribute 375 yards of mulch to 325 recipients. Thank you to everyone who participated!

California Water for All, of which San Juan is a founding member, just released the report from the University of California that shows that California faces a shortage of 9 million acre-feet (11 billion cubic meters) of water supplies within a generation. That's why San Juan is promoting Senate Bill 366, which will address this shortfall with statewide targets and an action plan. https://lnkd.in/gyYPQzCJ

With less than 1% of Earth’s water available for human use, every drop counts! We are dedicated to helping our customers find ways to conserve. Learn more about our services, like our free landscape irrigation reviews, at www.SJWD.org.

Honored to have Jim English, who began his journey as a Treatment Plant Operator and retired as General Manager (1975-2003), and Mike O'Bleness, who started as a 15-year-old Summer Temp and retired as our Water Treatment Plant Superintendent (1973-2008), join our All-Staff meeting yesterday, sharing invaluable experiences from their time at the District. Their stories remind us of the legacy we inherit and the hard work of so many that paved our path. We truly cherish our history and strive to build upon it for our customers and the region. 💧🌟 #ValueOurHistory #KnowYourRoots
