The Water Replenishment District manages groundwater for nearly four million residents in 43 cities of Southern Los Angeles County.
The 420 square mile service area uses about 250,000 acre-feet of groundwater per year taken from the aquifers of the Central Coast and West Coast Basins. This equates to nearly 40% of the total demand for water.
WRD is involved in groundwater monitoring, safe drinking water programs, combating seawater intrusion and groundwater replenishment operations throughout Southern Los Angeles County.
