Water Quality
EBMUD has an extensive water quality program
protecting the high quality of our water in the watersheds and reservoirs,
enhancing the quality through filtration plants, and maintaining that quality
through the distribution system to the consumer's tap.
This multi-barrier approach to contamination assures that all customers get high quality drinking water that meets or surpasses all state and federal regulatory requirements. For more detailed information about water quality, please view the links below.
