We recently received the California Association of Sanitation Agencies 2023 Public Outreach & Education – Small Agency award for our Emergency Preparedness Training Drill Video with the City of Encinitas.

Thank you to CASA for the award, our dedicated Field Services Technicians, and the City of Encinitas’ staff for assisting us during the emergency preparedness training drill.

Here are some daily tips for reducing pollution for #PollutionPreventionWeek! ⬇️

Be a water-saving hero! Whether at home or working outside, cutting down on water usage matters. Heating and pumping water takes energy and chemicals, but by using less, we save fuel and reduce pollution.

#PollutionPrevention Week Continues💧

Saving water isn't just about turning off the tap – it's about making a difference at home and work. By being mindful of our water usage, we're not only conserving this precious resource but also cutting down on fuel consumption and lessening the pollution caused by burning fuel and using chemicals. Let's work together for a greener, more sustainable future! 🌿🌱

Happy #PollutionPreventionWeek! 🌎♻️

Maintaining the health of our community and protecting the coastline is a big job and one that we all can contribute to. While our Field Services Technicians clean, inspect, maintain and repair the sewer system, there are things you can do to help prevent sewer spills and conserve water as well!

Effective September 6, 2023, a vacancy exists on the Board of Directors of the Leucadia Wastewater District (District).

The District is inviting qualified individuals to apply for appointment to fill the vacancy. The District adopted Ordinance No. 138 on January 9, 2019 implementing District based elections, and the vacancy is for a position that is within District 5 (orange area on map). The appointed director’s term will last until the next general district election in November 2024.

Make a splash of positive change during the 39th Annual Coastal Cleanup Day on Saturday, September 23 hosted by I Love A Clean San Diego! 🌊

Join the tens of thousands of volunteers worldwide at one of the 100+ local cleanup sites as our community comes together to divert litter and debris from our neighborhood parks, creeks, bays and ocean.

The District wants to remind homeowners and their contractors to properly dispose of the remaining pool plaster and to not pour pool plaster down the drain or your home’s cleanout. Proper disposal involves dewatering the concrete slurry and taking the hardened concrete remnants to a landfill or a recycling facility for reuse as aggregate.
