Emergency Response Plan

The Board of Directors and Staff of the District are in the process of developing an Emergency Response Plan specific to the District. Part of this plan is to determine the pressure and flow at various points if we are forced to supply water with only the head pressure developed by the storage tanks.

 WIFA Grant Received by District

The District has received a grant from the Water Infrastructure Finance Authority of Arizona to perform a leak detection study.  This work is currently scheduled to be performed beginning February 20, 2012.

District continues to pursuit USDA-RD Grant

The District continues to persue a grant from the United States Department of Agriculture – Rural Development to address some of our immediate concerns with the aging infrastructure within the District continues to be on hold. We have identified $2,300,000 of projects that will enhance the distribution system and give the District a more reliable system for the future. 

The grant application is in the process of being submitted to Washington for funding following the mid November final approval of the Archaeological Monitoring and Discovery Plan by the State Historical Preservation Office and the local Indian tribes.

MDWID Board elects new Chair and Vice Chair

Water Conservation Tips:

Use the following water conservation tips to reduce your use and your water bill:

• Driveways, Sidewalks, and Walkways – Instead of a
hose, use a broom or leaf blower to remove dead
leaves and debris.
• The toilets – if not a low-flow model, then install a
displacement device such as a plastic bottle with
water and pebbles. Don’t obstruct float.
• Bathroom sink – don’t let water run while you brush
your teeth or shave. Turn the faucet on briefly to
rinse.

Newsletter publishing schedule:

The newsletter will continue to be published on a periodic basis when we feel that it is necessary to contact all of our customers about current news in the District. We will also use the newsletter to seek input from all customers about various issues within the District.

Easements:

Please clean your easements so that MDWID and your other utility company’s have better access to the equipment that services your property. Under Arizona law it is the property owners responsibility to maintain the easements.  Please remove trash and cut or trim the trees and brush
