Our Source Water
The Kennebec Water District has used China Lake as its source of supply since 1905. China lake, covering an area of 6.1 square miles and a maximum depth of 85 feet, holds about 31.7 billion gallons of fresh water at any given time and provides more than enough capacity year around. The intake is in the West Basin of the lake which is largely undeveloped due to the Kennebec Water District’s management of these lands for over 100 years. Click below to find out more.

Help Keep Our Utility and Road Crews Safe
April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month, a timely reminder that safe driving requires our full attention at all times, not just in active work zones.
Each day, an average of 9 people lose their lives in distracted driving crashes. Staying focused behind the wheel is one of the simplest and most important ways we can protect one another.
Utility and road crews work daily to maintain the systems our communities rely on. You can help keep them safe by making distraction-free driving a priority:
• Enable “Do Not Disturb” mode while driving
• Take care of texts and emails before getting on the road
• Set your GPS and music before you begin your trip
Your attention matters every time you’re behind the wheel. Let’s continue to look out for one another and keep our roads safe.
