Local Water
About 30 percent of the water delivered is from local water supplies, including Lake Hodges and the San Dieguito Reservoir. Five percent of the water delivered is recycled water obtained from the San Elijo Joint Powers Authority and used in the City of Solana Beach for irrigation purposes.
In 2022, the City of San Diego began emergency repairs to Lake Hodges Dam, severely limiting the amount of local water SFID can use in 2023 and future years until a new dam can be constructed. Read the Lake Hodges Fact Sheet here to learn more about the potential impacts.
