Learn About Water

As your local water supplier, MNWD takes an active role in our community. The District was brought into existence by local citizens to meet local needs. Your elected Board of Directors has made a commitment to provide the community with information on current water issues in addition to providing water services. There are many opportunities for you to learn more about your water supply and water resources.

Citizens' Advisory Committee Studies Water Issues
In 1979, the MNWD Board of Directors formed a Citizens' Advisory Committee (CAC) to enhance communication with District customers and to generate feedback from the community. The group is made up of community leaders and interested residents who wish to learn more about water management and water resources.

The committee meets several times a year to discuss water and sewer issues such as conservation, water quality, recycled water, water supply reliability, and other pertinent issues. The committee provides excellent feedback to the Board and staff of the District. Members act as informal representatives of the District, as they are able to convey information back to their neighborhoods, civic associations and workplaces.

MNWD annually accepts applications for our Citizens' Advisory Committee. Learn the issues first-hand, provide input and help us spread the word on conservation and water quality!

Facility Tours
The District coordinates tours for groups interested in visiting local water and wastewater facilities such as the Joint Regional Treatment Plant, the Diemer Filtration Plant and Diamond Valley Lake. Call (949) 831-2500 for details.

Resource Material
It is the policy of the District to encourage customers to conserve water whenever and wherever possible. The water provided by the District is imported at considerable expense and has traveled hundreds of miles. When water is conserved, so is energy.

Please contact us any time for water conservation information or suggestions. In addition to conservation literature, the District maintains a library of water, sanitation and wastewater information. These materials include videos, films and brochures. For additional information on the materials and programs available, please contact the District at
