It is a privilege to serve as your representative on the Orange County Water District.  For the past eighteen years, I have worked to ensure our precious water aquifer is replenished and maintained to the highest standard.  I am a licensed Civil Engineer and have used my training to scrutinize the technical and financial aspects of all water district operations.  We are fortunate to have a very dedicated and motivated staff that operate our facilities and deliver quality services to our water producers.

In January 2008, we opened a new water treatment facility called the Groundwater Replenishment System.  This project is the largest of its kind in the world, and produces 100 million gallons a day of near distilled quality water.   That is enough to meet the needs of nearly 850,000 residents in north and central Orange County.  With the drought conditions in Southern California, this facility helps to alleviate overdrafting of the groundwater basin.  If you would like a tour of the facility in Fountain Valley, please contact me.

I thank you for the opportunity to serve.
