ABOUT DELTA DIABLO
Delta Diablo (formerly Delta Diablo Sanitation District) is an innovative California special district that provides wastewater resource recovery services for over 214,000 customers in the cities of Antioch and Pittsburg, and the unincorporated community of Bay Point. These services include secondary treatment of wastewater; production and distribution of recycled water; pollution prevention activities; beneficial use of biosolids as a soil amendment at land application sites; street sweeping; and household hazardous waste collection. Delta Diablo owns and operates a water resource recovery facility (WRRF) that provides secondary treatment for an average wastewater flow of 13 million gallons per day (MGD) and tertiary treatment for approximately 6 MGD to produce recycled water for use at two local power plants, a golf course, and schools.
In addition to meeting its core mission of protecting public health and the environment, exemplified by 16 years with only one NPDES discharge permit violation, Delta Diablo has established a vision of becoming a leader in wastewater resource recovery by embracing innovative technologies, pursuing leading-edge initiatives that add value to ratepayers while benefitting the environment, challenging traditional approaches, and fostering a strong organizational commitment to its core values of Integrity, Teamwork, and Trust.
Delta Diablo is governed by a three-member Board of Directors that includes a Pittsburg councilmember, an Antioch councilmember, and the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors Member representing the Bay Point community. Under the Board’s guidance, Delta Diablo has established a Strategic Business Plan that includes goals in five key areas—Financial Sustainability, Leadership, Operational Excellence, Workplace Innovation, and Stakeholder Engagement—as well as specific objectives for each year to continue progress toward meeting these goals.
The District continues to be recognized as a “Utility of the Future” by the National Association of Clean Water Agencies for its outstanding industry leadership and progressive commitment to innovation, resource recovery, and “cutting-edge” practices. The District’s FY20/21 budget totals $47.1 million, which includes operating and capital budgets of $29.3 million and $17.8 million, respectively. The District’s current 5-year Capital Improvement Program ($81.3 million) guides planning, design, construction, and financing of prioritized capital projects in the District’s wastewater collection, conveyance, and treatment systems, and recycled water system.
