Division 3

Today, we join the global community in recognizing World Nature Conservation Day, a time to reflect on how we protect the natural resources that sustain life, especially water.

At Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District, we believe conservation starts at home. Clean, reliable water is one of our most precious resources—and it’s one we must use wisely, especially as we face growing challenges like drought and climate change.

5 Simple Ways to Conserve Water Today:

1. 🌱 Replace lawns with native, drought-tolerant plants
2. 🚿 Shorten your showers
3. 💧 Fix leaks right away
4. 🕒 Water landscapes early or late to avoid evaporation
5. 📲 Monitor your usage with smart tools or your bill

Let’s celebrate this day by recommitting to responsible water use and doing our part for a healthier planet.

Service You Can Count On. Commitment You Can See.

At Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District, we know that providing reliable water service takes more than pipes and pumps – it takes partnership, planning, and a commitment to community.

That’s why we’re proud to work alongside agencies like the San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency, supporting forward-thinking regional projects like the Backbone Pipeline Project – a major step toward long-term water sustainability for our growing region.

From local capital improvement projects to expanded payment options and online customer tools, BCVWD is always working to make water service easier, smarter, and stronger—now and for the future.

Project Spotlight: “B” Line Upper Edgar Transmission Pipeline 🚧

Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District is proud to announce the launch of a critical capital improvement project—Project P-3620-0001, also known as the “B” Line Upper Edgar Transmission Pipeline.

This project will replace approximately 3,000 feet of aging 10-inch riveted steel pipe with a 12-inch ductile iron pipeline along Edgar Canyon Road, ensuring a more reliable water supply to the 3620 Pressure Zone, which serves portions of Oak Glen and Cherry Valley.

The existing pipeline has suffered frequent leaks and is vital to our distribution system. Board Director Andy Ramirez notes, “this water pipeline replacement is key to minimizing water loss, increasing operational reliability, enhancing fire protection, and preparing our system for future demands.”

Thanks to the support and recognition of this project’s importance to our community, the County awarded the District $1.3 million in ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act) funding to help make this $1.5 million upgrade a reality.

📍 Location: Edgar Canyon Road (District-owned land), Oak Glen & Cherry Valley
📅 Materials Expected: Late March 2025
✅ Design & CEQA/NEPA: 100% Complete!

We’ll be sharing updates as progress continues—stay connected!

Promoting a Water-Wise Future — One Garden at a Time

BCVWD was proud to support the recent Water-Wise Gardening Workshop hosted by our regional partner, San Gorgonio Pass Water Agency (SGPWA). With nearly 40 engaged and enthusiastic attendees, the event highlighted how sustainable landscaping can make a powerful difference in our homes, neighborhoods, and climate.

From learning about drought-tolerant plants to understanding the drawbacks of non-living ground covers like cement or wood chips, participants left with practical tips and a renewed commitment to conservation.

“These workshops show that education truly inspires action,” said Andy Ramirez, BCVWD Board Member. “It’s not just about saving water—it’s about creating beautiful, environmentally beneficial spaces that cool our communities, provide oxygen, and support long-term sustainability. We’re proud to support events that empower residents with the knowledge to make real change.”

The discussion also emphasized the value of reaching out to local water agencies for conservation programs and advice tailored to our region’s unique water challenges. With outdoor water use accounting for nearly two-thirds of residential demand, even small changes like smarter irrigation or switching to native plants can make a big impact.

🙌 Huge thanks to SGPWA for leading the way in community education and sustainable water practices. Together, we’re helping to build a resilient, water-wise future—one landscape at a time.

At Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District, we’re working around the clock to deliver safe, reliable water and that means replacing aging infrastructure through our ongoing Capital Improvement Program (CIP).

One of our major efforts is the Well 1A Project at our 12th Street and Palm Avenue Facility. Originally drilled in 1936, Well 1 is believed to be the oldest well in the Beaumont Basin and has reached the end of its service life. Well 1A is its modern replacement and is designed to strengthen our long-term supply system and meet growing community needs.

While the project has experienced delays due to staffing transitions, pandemic-related impacts, supply chain issues, and increased statewide drilling demand, drilling is now complete and we’ve entered the flushing and connection phase.

🛑 Here’s what you may notice in the area:

• Temporary traffic control on Palm Ave from 11th Street to 12th Street
• A temporary stop sign (per City request) to support safety during construction
• Special care to prevent water from impacting Stewart Park’s remodel during flushing
• Sound barriers were used during drilling to reduce noise in nearby residential areas and will be moved to the next drilling site soon

“Projects like Well 1A are a direct investment in our community’s future” stated Board Vice President Lona Williams. “Every upgrade strengthens our ability to deliver high-quality water, even during emergencies or peak demand. The Board remains committed to supporting critical infrastructure that protects public health and supports growth.”

We thank our customers for their patience as we move this important project forward and continue to improve service across the District.

Summer’s Here—And So Are Higher Water Bills (If You’re Not Careful!)

With warmer days and longer evenings, it’s no surprise that water use tends to climb in the summer. At Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District, we want to help you stay cool without letting your water bill heat up.

🌿 Outdoor watering, especially sprinklers and landscape irrigation, is the biggest source of increased summer usage. Even small changes like running sprinklers longer or watering more frequently can add up quickly.

🚿 Indoor habits can shift too! Longer showers, extra loads of laundry, and more frequent use of water to stay cool can all contribute to higher bills.

Here’s how you can keep usage in check:
✅ Water landscapes early in the morning or late evening to reduce evaporation
✅ Check for leaks and broken sprinkler heads
✅ Use a broom instead of a hose to clean patios and driveways
✅ Keep showers short and sweet
✅ Track your usage using your water bill or online tools

Every drop counts, especially during the summer. A few simple changes can make a big difference in your monthly bill and in protecting our shared water supply. Stay hydrated, stay cool, and be water-wise this season!
