The Contra Costa Canal is the backbone of our water system. Keeping this 80+ year-old facility in good condition is critical to the reliability of your water service. We recently repaired three sections of the canal in Oakley, Antioch, and Pacheco, so it can continue supplying tens of millions of gallons of water to people, businesses and cities in central and eastern Contra Costa County every single day.


We are also studying options for future modernization of the main canal. Learn more about the Main Canal Modernization Studies.
