Welcome to the web site of the East Boulder County Water District
(“District”). It is the major source for all information concerning the
District and its operation.
The District was formed by election of the residents of
Apollo Estates, Benchmark Estates, Panorama Park and Paragon Estates on November 2, 1999.
The District has been assigned Public Water System ID
#CO0107236. The election
established the initial Service Area and which properties initially
received water. This is the latest
District Boundary Map.

Some sections are under additional
development and will be added as they are completed. The reader
is encouraged to bring to the attention of the District's

FOR THOSE PROPERTY OWNERS WHO HAVE NOT
SUBMITTED THEIR SIGNED CROSS-CONNECT AGREEMENTS, PLEASE DO
SO NOW AND SEND THEM TO THE DISTRICT"S MAILING ADDRESS (see
Contact Us).
A new
Cross-Connect Agreement has been
posted. As part of the State of Colorado inspection
process of public water supplies, cross-connection
management is a key element. It was determined that the
District must obtain new Cross-Connect Agreements from the
current property owner(s). These will be used as part of the
documentation of the District's efforts to prevent
cross-connection at the individual property location. They
have been mailed to each property owner to be signed and
returned and filed with the Boulder County Recorder associated with
the property address. There are no impacts to a property
owners' well permit.

storage tank to provide for fire-fighting and other large demands for
water entered service on June 9, 2005.

A large-capacity booster pump to

water entered service on January 17, 2008.

An interconnect between the high-pressure distribution main and the low-pressure input
feed line (after the Lafayette meter) entered service on March 22, 2011.
The interconnect ensures access to the storage
tank in case of large demands for water (e.g., firefighting) or in event of
a temporary interruption of water supply from the City of Lafayette.

The web site has been designed to allow the reader
to change the size of the type on the page. This is done by going to the
"View menu" of the browser (e.g., Internet Explorer) and selecting "Text
Size" and choosing a size other than "Medium." This also
affects the size of the text when the page is printed. For those readers
with widescreen computer monitors, the page shape may be widened by
dragging the right window edge as desired. The information will reflow
to the new window size (if made too small, the information will not be
fully displayed). Other information is provided in Adobe Acrobat format,
requiring Adobe Acrobat Reader, which may be obtained free through
download
Adobe Reader.
Note: Where differences exist between this electronic
document and any official documents adopted by the District, the latter
shall be considered accurate and controlling. Every effort will be made
to correct such discrepancies when they are brought to the attention of
the District—see Contact Us.
