Cal Water's Chico District was formed in 1926 with the purchase of the Chico Water Supply Company, Chico-Vecino Water Company, and the C.C. White Water Company. We began serving Hamilton City in 1962 and the Durham area in 2001. To meet the needs of our 25,200 customers, we use 68 water wells to pump an average of 25.5 million gallons of groundwater per day, which are delivered through 333 miles of pipeline, seven storage tanks, and four booster pumps. Our company-wide water quality assurance program includes vigilant monitoring throughout our systems and testing at our state-of-the-art laboratory.
