Recognizing that even in years of normal rainfall its service area depends heavily on groundwater, the district’s network of basins and spreading grounds capture runoff to percolate into the resulting groundwater naturally available. With the population projected to dramatically increase in the near future, the district believes that conservation will increasingly be necessary as an effective means of coping with the increased demand. The certainty of intermittent regional droughts occurring in the future demands the increased use of water conservation as a vital tool in the protection of our water resources.

Chino Basin Water Conservation District is a public agency whose goal is the protection of the Chino Groundwater Basin in order to guarantee that current and future water needs will be met. The Basin is protected by the capture and percolation of waters through the district’s network of channels, basins and spreading grounds. Water conservation education is provided to the individuals and organizations within the service area to further promote the efficient use of our water resources.
