Facilities & Resources
Living Systems of Stewardship
The San Bernardino Valley Water Conservation District cares for places where water and community intersect. Across the Valley floor and along the Wash, our facilities serve as living systems that capture, guide, and return the flow of water to the earth. Spreading basins, recharge ponds, and carefully managed channels transform seasonal storms into lasting supplies, sustaining the aquifers that lie beneath our region.
These landscapes are more than infrastructure. They are classrooms beneath open skies, laboratories for research, and sanctuaries where rare plants and wildlife endure. Educators, scientists, and community partners use these spaces to study natural processes, measure outcomes, and experience stewardship in motion.
Translating Science into Practice
The District also provides resources that strengthen regional decision-making. Flow reports, monitoring stations, and field studies supply critical knowledge to water agencies, cities, and conservation groups, shaping policies that influence millions of lives. Land is managed for recharge as well as for open space, ensuring that water security is matched with the preservation of natural places.
Facilities and resources such as these form a foundation of resilience. They demonstrate how science and stewardship can be translated into the ground beneath our feet, protecting water and habitat while supporting the well-being of the communities we serve.
