Taylorsville-Bennion Improvement District provides over 70,000 residents with drinking water distribution and wastewater collection services.  The District maintains over 400 miles of pipe and delivers over 4 billion gallons of water each year to its customers.  It is located in the center of the Salt Lake valley as a part of the Greater Salt Lake City Area. The District was created in 1957 as an independent water and sewer special service district under the laws of Salt Lake County. The need for the District grew out of the necessity to provide life sustaining water and sewer disposal needs of an ever increasing population.  In the beginning, the District sent its wastewater to another sewer district to be treated. In the early 1980’s the federal government required consolidation of all treatment plants into large regional facilities. In 1987 the regional plant opened and the District combined with six sister entities to form the Central Valley Water Reclamation Facility.  The District owns about 10% of the reclamation facility and is heavily involved with the operations and facilities.  Today, the District serves its residents through 12 wells, and contracts with the county wholesaler, Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District, for additional water needs.
