Groundwater program expansion will increase water reliability

Two new wells are nearly complete in west Roseville, adding to a handful of existing wells used for water supply. These wells, combined with surface water from Folsom Lake and recycled water from the wastewater treatment process, are part of our water portfolio that allows us to maintain water reliability for our thriving community.

So how does groundwater work in Roseville? Watch the latest video!
