For this #TBT we’re looking back at the history of the Edgar Canyon Wells. During the 1920s and 1930s, 35 holes were drilled into the ground in Edgar Canyon. Today, there are 13 wells in the canyon that account for about 20-25% of the District’s current water demand.

This week, BCVWD celebrates all mothers, but don’t forget about the one we all share — Mother Nature. It’s important that we all play our part in conserving our water, and there’s plenty you can do at home. For instance, only wash your clothes when you have a full load and you can save up to 600 gallons each month.

It’s National Wildflower Week!

Next time you add or replace a flower or shrub, choose a low water use plant for year-round landscape color and save up to 550 gallons each year.

Today, we reflect on how far BCVWD has come. Pictured is a pipeline in Edgar Canyon circa 1908 — today, BCVWD builds projects like the MDP Line 16, a storm drain that protects the area from flooding and captures stormwater to replenish groundwater. 💪 #BCVWD #Conservation

Happy #EarthDay! Today is an important reminder to protect our precious resources, but BCVWD remains committed to conservation every day of the year.

BCVWD is committed to making conservation a way of life.

“Every small water-saving action adds up,” President Covington said. “While turning the water off while you brush your teeth may seem like a drop in the bucket, that soon becomes a full bucket that makes a meaningful difference in our water supply.”
