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

Check out our virtual tour where we will show you how our team keeps our sewer operations running 24 hours a day! This video explains how our pump stations work right below our streets, how we recycle water to be reused to irrigate a local golf course, and highlight the team that makes it happen.

Happy Throwback Thursday! 🔙
To get a sense of how far we've come since our start in 1959, take a look at our site's transformation below. The first photo shows an overview of our site during the 1970’s and the second photo shows our current site and admin building.
What a long way we've come!

Read how fourth grade teacher, Jennifer Smith, will use her Teacher Grant at El Camino Creek Elementary 🍎
The Water Conservation Strategies project will begin with a discussion of the environmental impacts of importing water from the Bay Delta and Colorado Rivers and the water energy nexus. The students will do an exercise to discover their "water footprint" and think of strategies they can use to conserve water. They will explore the benefits of hydroponic farming and compare water usage of a crop grown in a hydroponic system to a crop grown in soil.
The District offices will be closed today, January 18th, in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Call (760) 753-0155 in case of an emergency. #MLKDay
