ABOUT US

The Utility Maintenance District Division budget provides for the operation and maintenance of the various utility districts governed by the Board of Supervisors.  This budget funds the staffing, services, and equipment needed to provide domestic water, sanitary sewer, and storm drain pumping services to the residents of these districts.  Services are provided to customers within a variety of County Special Service Districts, representing the equivalent of a city of more than 18,000 in population.  A city of this population would typically cover an area of five square miles and be serviced by 10 wells, 1 sewage treatment plant, and 20 storm drain pumps.  The Utility Maintenance District Division operates and maintains 30 water systems with 52 wells; 3 sewage treatment plants; 9 sewage pumping stations; and 68 storm drain pumping stations.  These systems are spread throughout the 1,448 square miles of the County.

The Utility Maintenance District Division operates on a seven-day work week schedule and provides 24-hour response to emergency situations.
