Planning Today for the
Water Needs of Tomorrow

“I hope readers understand that 

the work we do at PCWA is 

deeply personal to me,” Brian 

said. “I’m not just planning for 

today’s customers…”

 

Supporting Customers,
Strengthening the System

“I love Lincoln,” Ashley said. 

“And I wanted to contribute 

to making life better, and 

give back to the community 

I’ve come to love.”

 

 

Keeping Water Flowing,
Every Hour of the Day

“Our water distribution system 

is a complex web of pipes, tanks, 

pumps, and other infrastructure 

that must work together every 

second just to make sure water 

is there at the tap when needed,”

 

Infrastructure

Expanding Water Treatment Capacity

The Ophir Water Treatment Plant 

will expand overall capacity 

and provide an additional 

treatment facility to support 

water service across western 

Placer County.

Investing in a Vital Community Asset

Lincoln’s water system is 

a major community asset—

valued at more than $500 

million and comprising 

roughly 300 miles of 

distribution pipeline.

Increasing Groundwater Flexibility

Two new groundwater wells 

in Roseville are expanding 

the City’s ability to store 

water in wet periods and 

use it when conditions 

turn dry.

Partnering for a Better Tomorrow

Growing a More Resilient Community

A water-wise, fire-smart

demonstration garden in Loomis

is helping residents learn

practical ways to conserve water,

reduce wildfire risk, and create

landscapes that thrive in

California’s changing climate.

Supporting Those Who Protect Our Community

Reliable water infrastructure

helps Lincoln firefighters respond

quickly and effectively, providing

the water needed to protect

lives and property when

every second counts.

A New Model for
Commercial Landscapes

Westfield Galleria at Roseville

transformed more than 150,000

square feet of lawn into a beautiful

water-wise landscape, saving an

estimated 8 million gallons of water

each year while enhancing

the visitor experience.
