We’re protecting the future of California’s Central Valley with clean and available water. Our Nitrate Control Program is part of our commitment to healthy communities and a thriving economy.
Our top priority is providing our neighbors with access to safe drinking water. We provide free water to any qualifying household with groundwater that exceeds the nitrate drinking water standard. We test wells, deliver free water, and maintain water filling stations throughout California’ Central Valley.
We provide free bottled water or a water treatment system to eligible households with a domestic well that exceeds drinking water standards. We distribute bottled water to homes and several areas have free public filling stations.
We offer free quality testing to help our neighbors determine if their well water is clean to drink.
Our mission is to ensure access to clean drinking water while improving groundwater quality. We pursue our mission through collaborative, community-based programs focused on measurable impacts.
Our long-term commitment to the community and to the State of California is documented in specific plans for each Management Zone in the Central Valley.
