SPECIAL FEATURES OF MEMBER AGENCY
Lake Bard was named after Calleguas MWD's first board president, Richard Bard, and the district's first director on the Metropolitan board. The lake holds 10,500 acre-feet of water.
Calleguas has four hydroelectric power plants in operation.
It will eventually
have a total of five
power plants. It maintains over
140 miles of pipeline
ranging from 96-inch to 16-inch diameter.
Calleguas is developing the Salinity Management
Pipeline (SMP) project to facilitate treatment
of brackish groundwater by Calleguas purveyors by providing
a discharge for brine concentrates and treated wastewater. Ultimately, the pipeline treatment facilities are expected
to generate 40,000 acre-feet annually in local water supplies.
