We're honoring our Field Services Technicians (FSTs) this week for California Water Professionals Appreciation Week💧

Below, we're sharing our “Meet the FSTs” video wherein you may recognize some familiar faces that you’ve seen in your neighborhood!

The Field Services Department consists of certified technicians who operate and maintain the District’s sewer system, known as a collection system. In this video, they explain how they use various equipment and complex computer systems to clean, inspect, operate, and repair the collection system.

Happy California Water Professionals Appreciation Week! 💦

Our District will celebrate with posts through October 15th, so be sure to check back in for updates!

The California Legislature officially designated the first week in October as California Water Professionals Appreciation Week. It is intended to highlight the important role of water industry professionals and local public water agencies in ensuring safe and reliable water, wastewater, and recycled water in California.

The District will be closed today, Monday October 9, 2023 in recognition of today’s Federal Holiday.
