Congrats on your retirement, James! 🎉

James Hoyett has worked as a Field Services Technician III for the District for the past 31 years and retired earlier this month. James has played an important role in the District’s many successes during his tenure including his participation with the District’s 50th Anniversary and Open House Events, numerous other local and state awards, and major upgrades and improvements that have been integral to the District’s outstanding record of protecting the environment.

Check out our Virtual Tour! While watching, listen as Field Service technician, Steve Krason explains how we use pumps and pump stations to safely move waste from your homes and businesses dozens of miles to a treatment plant.

Here is one of the best tips to express your love for improving the safety and quality of your water for your family and community❤️

Contrary to what you may have seen in movies, prescription drugs and medications should never be flushed down the toilet. Doing so poses a threat to the health of the environment and the community at large.

Tossing medications into the garbage also has its consequences.

Happy #ThrowbackThursday! 🔙

Check out these photos of our admin building throughout the years! The first photo shows our old admin building during the 70's featuring our old name, Leucadia County Water District. The second photo is our building during the early 90’s and the third photo is our current admin building.

We're grateful to have grown alongside our community throughout the years! #tbt

Paper towels, wet wipes, cleaning wipes, cosmetic wipes, disinfecting wipes, and feminine hygiene products should never go in the toilet. Only human waste and toilet paper are OK to flush.

We have repeatedly had issues with underwear getting flushed and clogging our Village Park 5 Pump Station on Encinitas Blvd, so please DO NOT flush underwear.

Learn more about what you can and cannot flush on our website: https://buff.ly/3ax0FmN
