With summer in full swing, a pool is an alternative to the beach to enjoy our warm Southern California weather. This is a reminder to homeowners and contractors to properly dispose of the remaining pool plaster and to not pour pool plaster down the drain or your home's cleanout.
This past winter, the Field Services Technicians encountered pool plaster in the sewer system. Pool plaster is a cement-like material that begins as a liquid that will settle and harden in the sewer system.
Our Field Services Technicians-In-Training role is still open and applications will be accepted until July 15, 2024, at 4:30PM. See below for more details.
Wishing you and your family a happy and safe 4th of July!
The District will be closed Wednesday July 4, 2024. In case of an emergency, please call (760) 753-0155.
The District recently partnered with the Olivenhain Municipal Water District to exercise critical hardware at Saxony Road and La Costa Avenue. 🛠️🚚
