Every day, more than 140 million gallons of used water and sewage from thousands of local homes, hotels, schools, churches and businesses makes its way to one of three treatment facilities in our valley. The "Clean Water Team" is responsible for the largest of those treatment facilities and our job is to treat, disinfect and reclaim our share of this massive amount of wastewater – 80 million gallons per day – and make it clean again so we can safely return it to the environment.

The mission of this Utility Services Department is to provide quality water, wastewater and reclaimed water service to the public within our City boundaries at equitable rates, making sure that the public and the customer receive sound value and highly responsive service within established ordinances and regulations. In addition, these services must be provided within the bounds of the Safe Drinking Water Act and the Clean Water Act.

The Big Bend Water District Treatment Plant. Our state-of-the-art treatment facility serves the Laughlin community.

Through a complex system of pipes that leads to every home and business, we deliver our most precious resource -- WATER-- to those who make their home in our desert community. From the moment the water is pulled from the Colorado River, every drop is treated with care using advanced treatment processes and superior technology.

By doing our job each and every day, year after year, we ensure that the visitors and the people who live here are supplied with the fresh, clean drinking water they need to survive and flourish in the Mojave Desert.

The winter snow pack on the mountain sides fills the alpine lakes. One of these, Lake Tahoe, overflows its pristine water into the Truckee River. The river winds down to the valleys below, to the cities of Reno and Sparks. Canals and ditches fed by the Truckee River irrigate agricultural areas. The residents of the valleys know the importance of this natural resource in the high desert. Each drop is managed for its best utility. The area has prospered, commerce has developed, and thousands of people have come to marvel at this scenic wonderland in the mountains. Many who come to visit become residents. The Truckee Meadows is one of the fastest growing metropolitan centers in the nation. Water conservation practices have secured a stable economic base during the lean water years. Water reuse has been a major issue in the cities of Reno and Sparks and it will become a greater issue in the future as the availability of water decreases.
