Highland, Calif. (April 17, 2025)Highland, Calif. (April 17, 2025) – As part of its commitment to providing a reliable service today and in the future, East Valley Water District (District) makes regular maintenance and enhancements an important element of its water system improvement efforts. Currently, District field crews are replacing an undersized water main line and installing a new fire hydrant at Oakridge Court and Piedmont Drive, in the City of Highland.

By replacing the undersized pipeline, the need for maintenance and leak repairs is significantly reduced on that street. Once the project is completed, over 400 feet of water main will be replaced and the new fire hydrant will assist the fire department during emergencies by providing access to system water, as well as aid in the maintenance of the distribution system.
