Well & Booster Content
The Palmdale Water District uses a mix of surface and ground water to satisfy the needs of our customers. Ground water is pumped from wells situated throughout the District. The wells and pumps vary in size from 70 to 1500 gallons per minute and depths of 80 to 800 feet. Most of the wells pump water directly into the distribution system where it is delivered to our customers.
The majority of our wells in the District are located on the valley floor and pump water to the lowest elevation in our system. Booster pumps ranging in size from 140 to 7000 gallons per minute move this water up to higher elevation zones and storage reservoirs to meet demand in these areas.
