About Us

What we do.

We are a water company that provides drinking water to the Ehrenberg community that meets or exceeds all State and Federal Standards.

How we do it.

We pump water from the Colorado River. Then we filter the water, inject chlorine gas and then distribute it to the community.

Concerns about lead?

None of the water mains or service connections in our system contain lead. We test our water for lead and copper in accordance with EPA and State ADEQ requirements. None of our testing has ever shown significant amounts of lead or copper. We have never exceeded EPA standards for lead or copper. If you want your water tested, we can help you to do it.

River Levels

River Reports

The levels of the river are important to everyone who uses the river. Click on the "River Levels" tab on the top of this page to access reports on how much water is flowing down the river in our vicinity.

Historically, river levels are at their lowest on Fridays. This is due to the fact that the river only flows by Ehrenberg so it can get to the canals in Yuma and then to California farmers. Weekend demands for water at those farms is lower during the weekend and then ramps up during the week.

The most accurate measurements for the current river level is the data on the "I-10 Bridge" location. Data at the "Colorado River Below Palo Verde Diversion Dam" on the USBR website shows what the levels will be in Ehrenberg in approximately six hours. The Palo Verde Diversion Dam is about 12 miles upstream from Ehrenberg. It takes the water about six hours to travel from there to Ehrenberg.
