Local Water Utilities United for Safe Drinking Water
The Spokane Aquifer Joint Board (SAJB) is comprised of twenty-one water purveyors throughout the Spokane area dedicated to providing safe, clean drinking water to your homes, offices and industries every day. Collectively we operate 122 wells, supplying drinking water to more than 500,000 people in the Spokane area. Each purveyor draws water from the same source – the SPOKANE VALLEY – RATHDRUM PRAIRIE AQUIFER.
The Spokane Valley-Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer
Designated as a “sole source” aquifer in 1978 by the federal Environmental Protection Agency. ‘Sole Source” means that the aquifer is our only affordable source of drinking water in a bi-state region serving drinking water to more than 500,000 people every day.
The Spokane Aquifer Joint Board is dedicated to protecting this sole source, through our Wellhead Protection Program and through citizen education and awareness. Visit our About page to learn more about us.
Part of SAJB’s wellhead protection efforts involve participation in the Aquifer Protection Council (APC) and the Idaho Washington Aquifer Collaborative (IWAC). The APC is comprised of private and government agencies committed to protecting groundwater quality in the Spokane Valley-Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer. IWAC is an organization of Idaho and Washington drinking water and reclaimed water purveyors. We are working together to protect water throughout the aquifer and river system, now and for generations to come.
