Our Water

General Information
The Mountain House Community Services District is responsible for providing the water services in Mountain House.

Fresh Water
Our water is pumped in from the canal to the west of us. It is then purified at the Water Treatment Facility on the north side of Byron highway on the Western edge of Mountain House. there, reserve water is stored and pumped from the large tanks to service the areas North of Mascot Blvd.

The Water Storage & Pumping Station just North of Delta College site serves the neighborhoods South of Mascot Blvd.

Waste Water
All household waste water including shower, kitchen, sewer end up in the sewer system. This water is piped to the Waste Water Treatment Facility on the north side of Byron Highway and the eastern edge of Mountain House where it's processed in a Sequencing Batch Reactor or SBR to make the water suitable for return into Old River or for the eventual irrigation of the new golf course.

Storm Drain System
Excess irrigation water and rain water are captured in our storm drain system which is connected to the Mountain House Creek in the center of town. Here, the water is naturally filtered and eventually deposited back into the Old River.

The Mountain House Community Services District maintains the storm drain system for the community. If you have a problem with a clogged storm drain, please contact MHCSD public works department.

Who Pays for these Facilities?
Our fresh water and sewage systems are paid for by the 3 pledge components on our water bills.
