Municipal Water District of Orange County Honored as IRWD Partner

May 12, 2011 - PRLog -- The Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC) and IRWD enjoy a long history of creative collaboration and public stewardship. They worked together closely to complete the Diemer Intertie Pipeline, later known as the Allen McCullough Pipeline, successfully coordinating the eventual takeover of the operation and maintenance of this project by MWDOC.

IRWD and MWDOC have also partnered on regional water supply planning and water supply reliability projects for South Orange County, including the South County Intertie.

MWDOC has been instrumental in assisting in IRWD negotiations with the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) on many water resource initiatives, including the San Joaquin Reservoir, the Baker Plant, conservation rebates and various local projects, subsidies and MWD programs.

On April 11, 2011, in commemoration of  IRWD's 50th Anniversary, the IRWD Board or Directors honored MWDOC as a key "Partner in Service" for the agency's many years of support, guidance and commitment to excellence in service to the community.
