ABOUT GROUNDWATER

Groundwater is water that has percolated into natural, underground aquifers. The Santa Clarita Valley's groundwater comes from local wells. Some wells are shallow and tap into the Alluvial Aquifer beneath the Santa Clara River and its tributaries. Others draw water from the much deeper Saugus Formation. The groundwater is then disinfected and pumped into the distribution system.
