Happy Earth Month 🌎
The District is committed to being a recognized leader in wastewater services, water recycling, and environmental protection. Through our dedication in collecting and transporting wastewater in a safe, reliable, efficient, and environmentally responsible manner, we recognize Earth day is everyday.
You may have seen in recent news articles that there was a sewage spill that affected the Batiquitos Lagoon and nearby beaches.
Leucadia Wastewater District was not responsible for any recent sewage spills. We are committed to protecting the environment by doing proactive sewer maintenance and staying on high alert during rainstorms.
If you see any overflow of water from a manhole in your neighborhood, please call us at (760) 753.0155.
In honor of Women's History Month, we want to share the story of Forest Gafner, a Leucadia resident and realtor who was instrumental in forming the Leucadia Wastewater District in 1959. Ms. Gafner served on the first Board of Directors, and helped to bring safe treatment and disposal of wastewater to the area, which had previously relied on septic tanks. The District’s water reclamation plant is named the Forest R. Gafner Water Reclamation Facility in her honor. #WomensHistoryMonth
Here is your reminder to tell a student about the California Special Districts Association"How Special District's Make the Difference" video contest!
