Meet Our Field Services Technicians
The 2025 Water Career Day, held on October 22nd at the San Elijo Water Campus, welcomed 75 enthusiastic high school students, college students, and transitioning veterans for an immersive, hands-on introduction to careers in the water and wastewater industry. Hosted by Leucadia Wastewater District, San Elijo Joint Powers Authority, and Olivenhain Municipal Water District, alongside key regional collaborators, the event offered a powerful blend of technical exploration, professional guidance, and real-world inspiration.
Are you aware that the District offers to reimburse
homeowners 50% of your sewer lateral repair costs, up to a maximum of $3,000?
The installation of lateral liners and/or replacing existing sewer pipe qualify as sewer repairs that can be reimbursed. The inspection and cleaning of a private lateral does not qualify for the program. More information can be found at https://bit.ly/LatGrant.
Leucadia Wastewater District will be closed Thursday, November 28 and Friday, November 29 in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday.
From all of us at LWD, we wish you and your families a safe, restful, and happy holiday! Remember to not pour any oil down the drain. Let it cool, than in the trash.
For wastewater emergencies, please call (760) 753-0155.
Yesterday marked the 250th birthday of the United States Marine Corps, and today we proudly celebrate Veterans Day - honoring all who have served with courage, strength, and dedication.
At LWD, we are especially grateful for our very own veterans, Marvin, Mauricio, and Curney, who first served as U.S. Marines and continue their commitment to public service through their work in our community.
Your service, sacrifice, and leadership inspire us every day.
Thank you for continuing to make a difference, in uniform and beyond.

Recently, we welcomed students, veterans, and future water professionals to another incredible Water Career Day - a day filled with hands-on learning, live demos, and real-world insight into the water and wastewater industry.
Alongside our partners at Olivenhain Municipal Water District and San Elijo Joint Powers Authority, we empowered students in exploring equipment and infrastructure while hearing directly from the people who keep our systems running.
Our team participated in mutual aid training with the City of Encinitas a few weeks ago - a valuable opportunity to strengthen coordination, sharpen emergency response skills, and stay ready to serve our community when it matters most.
We’re proud to highlight the collaboration happening behind the scenes.
We’ve updated the signage at LWD Headquarters and the Batiquitos Pump Station - part of our continued efforts to keep our facilities looking as professional as the team that runs them.
Here’s a first look at the new sign at HQ!
