Big Water News in Gasquet

Safe drinking water is coming to the Northfork Loop and Stoney Creek, in Gasquet.

It’s a first!

The much- welcomed H2o will now address springs running dry and leaving homeowners with no option but to purchase mobile-delivered water.

Since the founding of the water district in 1968, the Loop has never had access to fresh, safe drinking water. Crews have begun digging a 3000 ft trench surrounding the Loop. Some 30 parcels are soon to be impacted. Water from the Smith is now being sanitized for the property owners.

A $2 million grant from the California Department of Water Resources is funding the grant. The buy-in is $4600 per parcel. Water users can expect  their faucets to release the clean water by early June.
