Marin Municipal Water District
San Rafael, California

Description

Providing high-quality drinking water to 190,800 customers in central and southern Marin County, Marin Municipal Water District was established in 1912 and today provides 75 percent of the District’s water. Rainwater is collected from 21,600 acres of protected watershed on Mt. Tamalpais and the hills of west Marin and is stored in one of MMWD’s seven reservoirs. Prior to use, the water is treated and filtered at one of the district’s potable water treatment plants. Facilities for the District also include pipelines, storage tanks, pump stations, watershed and administrative facilities. Smith-Emery has provided field testing, inspection and laboratory testing, as well as geotechnical engineering services for the District.
