🎄✨ Happy Holidays from Leucadia Wastewater District! ✨🎄
As you enjoy your festive feasts, remember: holiday cooking grease belongs in the trash, not down the drain! Let’s work together to keep our pipes clog-free this season.
📅 Please note: The District will be closed on Wednesday, December 25, 2023 for the holiday. For emergencies, our team is here to help—just call (760) 753-0155.
Wishing you a season filled with joy, laughter, and responsible grease disposal! 🌟
Maintaining Easements with Field Services Technicians
Check out our video showcasing our dedicated Field Services Technicians (FSTs) in action as they clean up an easement in a local canyon. In this video you'll learn how our FSTs maintain easements by clearing debris periodically. This is important, so they can easily access manholes for maintenance and emergencies. It's a true testament to the power of teamwork and environmental stewardship!
Our utmost priority is collecting and transporting wastewater in a safe, reliable, efficient, cost efffective and environmentally responsible manner for our customers and to protect our local beaches and lagoons from sewage spills.
Recently at our Board meeting, we were recognized for not having a sewer spill in the last 5 years! Thank you to our team for working hard to prevent spills and to the community for disposing of waste properly.
Congratulations to Board President Chris Roesnik and Board Directors Robert Pacilio and Matt Brown on officially being sworn in to their positions at the Leucadia Wastewater District December Board meeting!
💧🚰 A Year in Review: Big Wins for Our Field Technicians! 🚰💧
Our hardworking team at Leucadia Wastewater District made incredible strides during the fiscal year 2023/2024, ensuring clean, reliable, and sustainable water systems for our community. Here’s what we accomplished:
✅ 76 miles of pipeline video inspected 📹
✅ 181 miles of pipeline cleaned 🧼
✅ 64 million gallons of recycled water produced ♻️
Tree roots can wreak havoc on sewer pipes, causing blockages and damage that lead to costly repairs. Recently, the LWD team discovered a tree root growing inside a sewer main line, highlighting the importance of keeping roots out of both sewer mains and homeowner laterals.
Our Field Service Technicians diligently check and clean manholes and lines to prevent such issues. Homeowners can help by planting trees away from sewer lines and inspecting their laterals every other year. Together, we can protect our sewer system and ensure smooth, uninterrupted service for all.

Remember to not pour any oil down the drain. Let it cool, than in the trash.
You don't need a sewer backup in the house during that great dinner!
