Water Quality

The Consumer Confidence Rule requires public water suppliers that serve the same people year round (community water systems) to provide consumer confidence reports (CCR) to their customers. These reports are also known as annual water quality reports or drinking water quality reports.

All of Zone 7's water delivered to its retailers serving homes and businesses in Livermore, Pleasanton, Dublin and Dougherty Valley meets state and federal health-related drinking water standards and, in almost all cases, the quality is much better than required. In addition, Zone 7 water meets most of the Agency's own, more stringent, water-quality targets. These internal targets were developed for an additional margin of safety and to address local concerns regarding such things as taste, odor and water hardness. Zone 7's Water Quality Management Program -- developed jointly by Zone 7 and its stakeholders, including its water retailers -- establishes internal targets and policies for both treated and untreated water quality. These targets help guide operations and help provide a basis for upgrading or improving facilities and providing new facilities when necessary.
