Quench: The Cleaner, Greener, More Affordable Water Cooler for Sacramento-Stockton-Modesto

Sacramento – Stockton – Modesto Water Quality: Yesterday

In California’s Central Valley, water management and protection has always been a chief priority. Though proper distribution of water was a priority throughout the 19^th century, the federal government’s Central Valley Project would not become a reality until 1933. The project provides irrigation and municipal water to Sacramento, Stockton, and Modesto by regulating and storing water in reservoirs in the north and transporting it south by way of canals, aqueducts, and plants. Today, the system’s 13 million acre feet of water in 20 reservoirs and passes about 7.4 million acre feet annually through its canals.

Sacramento – Stockton – Modesto Water Quality: Today

A vital resource in hot, dry California, water reaches Sacramento residents by way of the Sacramento and American rivers and groundwater sources. An hour south through the Central Valley lies Stockton, where Californians can trace their tap water back to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and the Mokelumne River, along with wells located throughout the region. Modesto residents, less than 35 miles to the south, draw their drinking water equally from surface and groundwater sources, including 79 wells and the Modesto Reservoir.

Whether utilizing water from the ground or at the surface, consumers can face any number of imperfections in their tap water. As water travels through the ground or over the land, it picks up naturally occurring minerals and animal or human pollution. This often manifests as a musty odor or taste, especially after construction or lots of rain.

Recently, Sacramento residents noticed some strange-tasting water after a blue-green algae bloom in August 2017, causing an earthy taste. These water fluctuations, though safe, are common across California during the worst of the summer, as algae thrive in high temperatures and low water levels.
