Water Quality

All water delivered by the District to each customer’s faucet comes directly from two local groundwater basins and is minimally treated. Together, the groundwater basins contain over 600,000 acre-feet of water, or over 195 billion gallons.


Only a portion of the local groundwater can be used for drinking water. The basins consist of three layers, with the top layer comprised of high quality water ready to go to customers. The lower two layers contain more minerals, are harder to reach, and cannot be used to supply water to the District. The District diligently seeks to protect its water from potential contaminants. Each month, the District conducts nearly 30 water quality tests so that customers can be confident they are receiving safe, high-quality water.

Lead Service Line Inventory Memorandum 

Memorandum

 

Phelan Pinon Hills Community Services District has completed the initial lead service line inventory required by U.S. EPA's Lead and Copper Rule Revisions.  The deadline for the initial inventories is October 16, 2024.

Through completing a historical records review and field investigations, Phelan Pinon Hills Community Services District has determined it has no lead or galvanized requiring replacement service lines in its distribution system.

Phelan Pinon Hills Community Services District reviewed all applicable sources of information, including

  • All construction and plumbing codes, permits, and existing records or other documentation which indicates the service line materials;
  • All water system records, including distribution system maps and drawings, historical records on each service connection, meter installation records, historical capital improvement or master plans, and standard operating procedures;
  • All inspections and records of the distribution system that indicate service line material, including inspections conducted during the course of normal operations (e.g., checking service line materials when reading water meters or performing maintenance activities); and 
  • All previous service line or meter replacements were conducted.

In addition to reviewing the above sources of information, Phelan Pinon Hills Community Services District physically inspected all service lines in its distribution system, regardless of ownership.  All service lines were verified non-lead.

Phelan Pinon Hills Community Services District will update service line material information obtained from normal operations, such as service line maintenance, installation, or water meter readings, after October 2024 and will update the initial inventory accordingly.
