The City has finalized the improvements at the Cypress Water Production Facility (CWPF) in order to distribute blended water (a combination of treated well water and imported Metropolitan Water District (MWD) water) and has also received approval from the California Department of Public Health (DPH) to begin the water blending operation and distribution to our customers. The expected start-up date is early April 2013.
