National Safety Month

BCVWD is ready to help in various emergencies, even if they do not directly impact water service. Last fall, during the 1,000-acre Sandalwood fire in Calimesa, BCVWD ensured the recharge ponds were as full as possible so that firefighting helicopters had access to the water if needed. #NationalSafetyMonth “Our ponds are not usually kept full at that time of year,” said Vice President David Hoffman, on behalf of the Board of Directors. “Our staff worked around the clock to ensure the largest water supply possible was immediately available to help fight the fire.”
