Carter and Arroyo Reservoir Rehabilitation Project

The East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) is undertaking the Carter and Arroyo Reservoirs Improvement Project, a significant initiative aimed at enhancing water quality, updating aging infrastructure, and improving the reliability of water service in EBMUD’s Carter Pressure Zone in Moraga. This project, which involves rehabilitating the Carter Reservoir and replacing the existing Arroyo Reservoir with two new tanks, will bring several benefits to the community, including improved water quality, increased water supply reliability, and a more robust water infrastructure.
