Alameda County Water District

The Alameda County Water District is a special purpose public service agency located in Northern California, SF Bay Area, which provides drinking water to over 320,000 people.

 

Our Dedication

For 100 years, the Alameda County Water District has supplied water to the residents and businesses of southern Alameda County. As our area has grown and changed from being an important agricultural center to supporting a growing suburban population, our water system has grown and changed with it.

Today, we have a staff of nearly 230 dedicated employees, and supply drinking water to the more than 356,000 people living in the cities of Fremont, Newark, and Union City.
