Where is my water treated?

The District has three distinct water systems serving the mostly residential areas around Lake Whatcom.

The Agate Heights water system serves a small residential area near Agate Bay with water from an artesian well.  The water is drawn from the well and treated at our Agate Heights Water Treatment Plant before being piped to the residences that it serves.

The Eagleridge water distribution system serves a small residential area on the North Shore of Lake Whatcom with water that is purchased from, and treated by, the City of Bellingham and piped through the District’s water distribution system to its customers.

The South Shore water distribution system serves the Geneva and Sudden Valley areas with water treated at our water treatment plant in Sudden Valley.
