Our Source Water
The Kennebec Water District has used China Lake as its source of supply since 1905. China lake, covering an area of 6.1 square miles and a maximum depth of 85 feet, holds about 31.7 billion gallons of fresh water at any given time and provides more than enough capacity year around. The intake is in the West Basin of the lake which is largely undeveloped due to the Kennebec Water District’s management of these lands for over 100 years. Click below to find out more.

Just like humans, pets rely on water to stay healthy and happy. Proper hydration is essential for maintaining your pet’s body temperature, digestion, and overall well-being. Dogs and cats, in particular, need easy access to clean, fresh tap water throughout the day. Make sure you’re refilling their water bowls regularly and, if possible, offer a few different locations around your home to ensure they always have access.
💧 Pro Tip: Monitor your pet’s water intake, especially during the hot months. If they’re not drinking enough, try adding ice cubes or switching out the water more frequently to keep it cool and appealing.
