Our Mission Statement
To strive for total customer satisfaction by providing the safest and highest quality water at the most responsible cost. To professionally manage Rockwood Water to assure its financial health for the ongoing protection of our customers.

About the District
The District has been in business for over 90 years. Originally known as Rockwood Water District, it became a People's Utility District (PUD) in 1990 to protect its boundaries from annexation. The District encompasses approximately 10 square miles. We maintain over 165 miles of pipeline, operate three production wells, and manage 4 reservoirs which provide 21 million gallons of storage to provide you with a reliable and adequate water supply. We currently provide water to 13,200 meters or approximately 61,100 people within the cities of Portland, Gresham and Fairview. Your water is a blend of District groundwater and water from the Bull Run watershed purchased from the City of Portland. The City of Portland also draws water from the Columbia Southshore Wellfield to augment the Bull Run supply during emergency situations or to meet high water demands during the summer months.
