Your Drinking Water
The Central Utah Water Conservancy District, in its role to develop
water resources and meet the water requirements of the counties within
the District area, has built and currently operates water treatment
and storage facilities in Salt Lake, Duchesne, Uintah, and Utah counties.
These facilities provide dependable, quality water on a wholesale basis
to meet the needs of communities, ensure public health, and maintain
public trust.
The District has built the Jordan Valley Water Treatment Plant (JVWTP),
the largest water treatment plant in the state of Utah, in Salt Lake
County. The District has also built the Jordan Aqueduct Terminal Reservoir,
100 million gallons of treated water storage, in Salt Lake County. These
facilities are operated by Salt Lake County Water Conservancy District
in behalf of themselves and Metropolitan Water District of Salt Lake
City and help to meet the ever increasing water demands for Salt Lake
City and County.
The
Utah Valley Water Treatment Plant is located in Orem, Utah and presently
serves the cities of Orem and Provo. The Duchesne Valley Water Treatment
Plant is located adjacent to Starvation Reservoir and serves Duchesne
City and a large percentage of area in Duchesne County. The Ashley Valley
Water Treatment Plant is located north of Vernal in Uintah County and
serves several water providers in Ashley Valley. Our treatment operation
personnel are committed to providing safe and reliable water to each
of our customer agencies. The District considers protection of our sources
of water we treat as the first effort to providing high quality water.
The District participates in professional association, supports research
projects, and continues efforts in water quality excellence through the Partnership
for Safe Water program. We participate in watershed monitoring programs
such as "Keep Your Water Clean" and
sample raw water from each of the sources to our treatment plants.
