Water Professionals Week

It is Water Professionals Week! The City of Escondido supplies water to approximately 26,000 residential, commercial, and agricultural customers with water from the Escondido-Vista Water Treatment Plant.

The Canals Division maintains the Escondido Canal, which transfers water from Lake Henshaw to Lake Wohlford.

The Water Division maintains and operates the water distribution system, consisting of approximately 26,000 service meters, 440 miles of pipelines, 50 pressure-reducing/regulating stations, five pump stations, and 11 reservoirs.

The Lakes Division also operates Escondido's two lakes, Dixon and Wohlford, for recreational purposes and water storage and supply.

Thank you to all the water professionals for the important work you do to keep water flowing safely and reliably to the City of Escondido!
