PROTECT YOURSELF FROM FRAUD THIS HOLIDAY SEASON
|
PWP has received reports of unidentified callers demanding payment from customers and threatening to shut off service. These scammers may attempt to request personal information or provide false data regarding your energy and water usage.
During the holiday season, fraud attempts are increasingly common, which is why PWP is urging customers to be alert. Remember, PWP does not call customers to request payment or to discuss account shut off. Important information from the utility is always mailed out. If you suspect fraudulent activity, hang up and check your account status online, or by calling Customer Service.

ORANGE GROVE PIPELINE PROJECT UPDATE
|
PWP crews began work on the Orange Grove Pipeline Project in February 2019. This project focuses on replacing older water distribution pipes.
Currently PWP is working on phase II of the project. This focuses on installing a new 24-inch pipeline from Fair Oaks Ave to Palo Verde Ave. Work began in mid-July 2019 and is expected to be completed by March 2020. To minimize impact, construction efforts are contained to approximately one block at a time.
Due to the City's construction moratorium, installation is currently on hold until after January 6 when the project will resume at Lake Avenue.
Public Works will be repaving and restriping Orange Grove once the project is complete.

LANDSCAPING WORKSHOPS AT SHELDON RESERVOIR
|
PWP is transforming and beautifying the landscape at the Sheldon Reservoir into a Community Demonstration Garden. Throughout this process, PWP is hosting hands-on workshops for community members.
Join us on
Friday, January 24
or
Sunday, January 26
from 9 AM to 2 PM for Hügel Workshops.
A hügel is a permaculture technique that utilizes decaying wood debris and other compostable biomass in a raised and mounded bed on which plants, trees, and shrubs can be planted. Over time this becomes sponge-like—soaking up rainfall and slowly releasing it into the surrounding soil—and thus making the moisture available to surrounding flora.
Water, coffee and refreshments will be provided.
