Investing in Reliability – Then and Now

Did you know parts of your water system have been serving the community for over 100 years?

BCVWD recently completed an important upgrade to the historic “A” Line along Oak Glen Road, originally constructed around the time of World War I. This critical pipeline continues to deliver reliable water from our Upper Well Field, one of the District’s most dependable water sources.

District staff installed a new pressure sustaining valve (PSV) and bypass to enhance overall system performance, improve pressure management, and support reliable water delivery throughout the area. This upgrade also helps address historically lower pressure conditions at the far northern end of the system.

Even more impressive, this project was designed and constructed entirely in-house by BCVWD staff, maximizing efficiency and making the most of existing infrastructure.

“Projects like this show how we are balancing the preservation of our historic infrastructure with smart, modern improvements,” said BCVWD Board President Lona Williams. “We are committed to investing in our system to ensure reliable water service for our community today and for generations to come.”

As we look ahead, the District is planning for future upgrades to continue this legacy of reliable service.
