The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan) is a public agency incorporated in 1928 pursuant to the Metropolitan Water District Act to build the Colorado River Aqueduct, a facility it still owns and operates. Metropolitan's primary purpose is to provide a supplemental water supply for domestic and municipal uses at wholesale rates to its member agencies. Metropolitan imports water from two sources: the Colorado River via the Colorado River Aqueduct and Northern California via the California Aqueduct. Today, Metropolitan provides nearly 60 percent of the water used within its service area.
Metropolitan consists of 26 member agencies that include 14 cities, 11 municipal water districts, and one-county water authority. Metropolitan is governed by a 38-member Board of Directors made up from the member agencies.
Metropolitan's service area comprises 5,200 square miles and includes portions of the six counties of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, and Ventura. Existing Metropolitan facilities include a 242 mile-long Colorado River Aqueduct with 5 pumping plants, a distribution system utilizing 8 functional reservoirs, 5 water treatment plants, 43 pressure control structures, 16 hydroelectric plants, and approximately 830 miles of large diameter pipelines.
