Desert Water Agency’s system is made up of about 425 miles of pipeline. Much of this pipeline was installed before the Great Depression. Due to the age of the pipeline, DWA has about 80 miles in need of replacement. The Agency plans to install several miles of new pipe a year until at least 2031. 

Our team has identified the areas in most critical need of replacement and developed a schedule to start replacements. We are coordinating with the City of Palm Springs’ planned pavement projects to help reduce project cost and inconvenience for our community.

While we understand that the installation of new water facilities causes an inconvenience, it is an essential part our responsibility to provide clean, reliable water to you and your neighbors.

We will update this page with new pipeline projects as information becomes available. Check back for more details.
