About the District:  

The Carpinteria Valley Water District's (CVWD) mission is to provide potable
water to all residential, commercial and agricultural customers in the Carpinteria
Valley at a reasonable cost.

Established in 1941, the Carpinteria Valley Water District is located in the
southern coastal portion of Santa Barbara County and includes the City of
Carpinteria. The District, which spans approximately 8,912 acres, is bound on the
south by the Pacific Ocean and on the north by the foothills of the Santa Ynez
mountains. CVWD uses 75 miles of pipeline to provide water to approximately
19,000 people.

The District operates under the general direction of an elected five-member
Board of Directors. The Board members are elected by the registered voters of
the District to four year terms. The Board meets twice a month, and these
meetings are open to the public.

Day-to-day management of the District is delegated to the General Manager,
Charles B. Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton manages 17 people who carry out a variety                               of District functions. These functions include meter installation and repair,                                water quality testing, infrastructure development and maintenance, and
customer support.
