NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the scheduled September 19, 2023 Personnel Committee Meeting of the Beaumont-Cherry Valley Water District has been cancelled.

Did you know the third week of September is #NationalIndoorPlantWeek? 🪴

It’s a great time to be water-wise when we care for our indoor plants! Here are some tips:

1. Collect the water you use for rinsing produce to water houseplants.
2. Did you accidentally drop an ice cube? Don’t throw it in the sink. Hydrate your houseplant instead.
3. Keep a bucket in the shower to catch water as it warms up. Use this to water houseplants.

This Patriot Day, we remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001. Gone, but never forgotten. #WeRemember #PatriotDa

BCVWD and Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District celebrated the completion of our joint stormwater project at a ribbon cutting yesterday!

The project will reduce area flooding and conserve runoff for future use by capturing 150 to 500 acre-feet of water annually into an underground aquifer. That’s enough water to supply as many as 900 local families for a year!

It’s #TBT! Let’s go back to 2000 when the District’s reservoir system included only seven million gallons of storage. Since then, we’ve worked diligently to expand our water storage and delivery system. Today, the District has a 35-million-gallon storage capacity.

Our storage systems have grown alongside the flourishing community; they now support 59,000 people in both the City of Beaumont and the community of Cherry Valley.

When chore day hits, it’s easy to waste water without thinking. Here are a few simple water-saving tips for cleaning your house. 🧽🧹

1. Don’t let the water run while washing dishes by hand. Fill one sink with wash water and the other with rinse water.

2. Soak your pots and pans instead of letting the water run while you scrape them clean.

3. Only run your washing machine and dishwasher when they’re full — you could save 1,000 gallons a month!

BCVWD was excited to receive recognition for its joint stormwater project with the Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District!

BCVWD and the Flood Control District accepted the Outstanding Flood Management Project accolade for the Beaumont MDP Line 16, Stage 50, at the American Society of Engineers (ACSE) San Bernardino and Riverside Gala Awards on August 17.
The project will provide both flood control and stormwater capture for groundwater recharge, expanding the region’s water supply.
