Residential Programs
West Basin Municipal Water District provides potable water to almost a million people in 17 cities and several unincorporated areas in the coastal Los Angeles area. With close to 100,000 acre-feet (34 billion gallons) of water used in this area annually, and water supply cutbacks on the horizon, there are many opportunities to reduce water use at home. Be sure to take our Home Conservation Tour, available from our home page or from the button to your right.
West Basin offers programs that target both indoor and outdoor water use. Learn about West Basin's ocean friendly landscape workshops, rebates for water efficient appliances and our partnership with Edison and the Gas Company that brings water and energy efficiency to apartments and condos. Please note: All programs are based on available funding on a first come, first served bases. Program components are subject to change or end at any time, without notice. Below is a list of programs for qualifying residents in West Basin's service area to conserve water, energy, and money.
