Homeowner Receives $1,045 Sewer Lateral Grant

In August 2021, District customer Abbie Deaton received a sewer lateral grant of $1,045. Abbie contacted the District for sewer lateral information when she was in the process of having a plumbing company repair a sewer cleanout with major root intrusion at her residence. She was pleasantly surprised to hear about the District Lateral Reimbursement Program. When asked about her feelings toward the program, Abbie said the District and the reimbursement were “unexpected blessings.”

The bioluminescence is back in North County San Diego!

This is a yearly occurrence when a specific algae blooms across a stretch of ocean from Baja California to Los Angeles.

Maybe you’ve smelled the bloom as well? While the algae itself emits an odor, the rapid increase in algae can overwhelm the local waters and starve it of oxygen, sometimes killing fish, which can also build up an odor. Rest assured, there are no sewage spills at this time and our team is constantly monitoring our system.
