Water

The Public Works - Water Distribution Section maintains over 80 miles of water transmission and distribution lines. In addition, they are responsible for the maintenance and operation of the City’s fire hydrants and water meters.

Water Distribution works closely with citizens to solve water related issues, such as the common water heater dip tube problem, educating the public about water heater thermal expansion and assisting in the detection and prevention of leaks. The leak prevention program has been very successful and the resulting water conservation has earned this program State recognition.

To ensure that the quality of Wilsonville's water is maintained throughout the distribution system, the City has implemented a cross-connection control (backflow prevention) program. This program, including a list of certified backflow prevention device testers, is discussed in more detail on the City's cross connection control program page.

Wilsonville’s water is supplied by the Willamette River Water Treatment Plant. The latest Water Quality Report is available online.

If you would like to report a leak, contact Public Works at (503) 682-4092.
