The Santa Clarita Valley Family of Water Suppliers consists of the Castaic Lake Water Agency, or CLWA, the CLWA Santa Clarita Water Division, Los Angeles County Waterworks District No. 36, Newhall County Water District, and the Valencia Water Company.

The State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water requires water agencies to provide all customers an annual report on the quality of drinking water and to show how it meets federal and state drinking water standards.

This 2015 Annual Water Quality Report describes in detail the quality of local water supplies in the Santa Clarita Valley during 2014.

There is additional explanation of the requirements and test results in the report.

This year we are posting the report on our websites and mailing notices of its availability to customers in order to save our ratepayers money and still comply with current law.

To view the 2015 Annual Water Quality Report, go to any of the websites of the water suppliers noted above or access it at the Santa Clarita Valley Family of Water Suppliers website or the CLWA website.

Paper copies of the 2015 Water Quality Report can be obtained by contacting your local water retailer identified in the report.
