The Upper San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District (Upper Water) was formed by voters of 18 cities and Los Angeles County unincorporated areas on December 8, 1959. In 1963, residents of Upper Water voted to join the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD), to import water from the Colorado River, and later from the State Water Project into the San Gabriel Valley. Nearly one million people live and work in Upper Water's 144 square mile service area. Annually, demand for treated, untreated and recycled water in the Upper Water service area averages more than 78 billion gallons. Upper Water partners with many public and private entities to provide a sustainable, high quality water supply to residents and businesses within the greater San Gabriel Valley.
