SERVICE AREA 1, INDIAN LAKES
Service Area 1, Indian Lakes, is located southeast of Coarsegold
near State Highway 41 and Road 417 in Madera County. The
district will eventually provide water service to about
520 homes and currently serves 457.
The water system consists of six deep wells, of which 5
are in use, drawing from rock fractures approximately 300
to 1100 feet below the earth’s surface. The wells produce
about 900 gallons per minute to supply an iron and manganese
removal plant. The treated water is stored in a 750,000
gallon tank prior to distribution. Water is distributed
through cement-lined, steel pipes utilizing boost pumps
to pressurize the system. During emergencies, there is a
generator backup to operate the pressure system and three
wells. An auto dialer is used to report alarm conditions
to us automatically. This water system is both metered and
chlorinated.
Madera County Engineering Department routinely monitors
for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal
and State laws. Our constant goal is to provide you with
a safe and dependable water supply. A Consumer Confidence
Report is prepared annually and delivered to all residents
served by the water district. These reports, prepared especially
for this district, are available for viewing below. Adobe
Acrobat Reader, which may be downloaded free of charge from
Adobe’s website, is required to view and/or print them.
Be aware that there is a one year lag time in these reports;
i.e., the report dated 2004 contains test results collected
in 2004, but the report is not written or released until
approximately June, 2005. Future dates will be posted as
they become available.
