EID provides safe and reliable water, wastewater, and recycled water services to our customers. We also use our water supply for power generation and recreation.
Turn on the tap, water flows. Flush the toilet and wastewater leaves your home to be safely treated or reused as recycled water. With EID’s safe and reliable water and wastewater services, you don’t have to think much about the infrastructure for your home, business, or community.
On October 21, consider what your day would be like if you turned on the tap and nothing came out and you didn’t have access to clean, safe water.
Without water, fire protection personnel would be unable to fight fires, hospitals could not function, you could not bathe or wash your hands, and food would not grow. Without clean and safe water, life is not possible.
According to the 2021 Annual Value of Water Index, the highest federal priority for voters was ensuring a reliable water supply. Water infrastructure is vital to every household and community. As water infrastructure ages it needs to be replaced so that these services continue to be safe and reliable. EID staff work diligently and effectively to assess infrastructure needs and prioritize its maintenance, repair, and replacement. We also have highly skilled workers who operate our complex systems to keep water and wastewater services flowing 24/7, 365 days a year.
