California American Water is committed to providing customers
with high-quality, reliable service. The company’s ongoing
infrastructure investments improve reliability to help keep water
service flowing for customers.
California American Water recently completed a $4.5 million
water main replacement project in its Bellflower system, replacing
8,510 linear feet of aging 4 and 6-inch asbestos cement water main
with new 8-inch ductile iron pipes, installing new service pipes
for 170 customers, upgrading 13 fire hydrants, and replacing 39
gate valves. California American Water acquired the City of
Bellflower’s municipal water system in 2022, and has since made
several upgrades to the system, utilizing the company’s scale and
expertise, to improve service to approximately 1,800 homes and
businesses in the Bellflower system.
“The Bellflower water main project is part of California
American Water’s multimillion-dollar initiative to renew water
infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life,” said
Jessica, Taylor, Director of Operations, Southern Division,
California American Water. “Our important work in the City of
Bellflower makes our system more durable, less prone to corrosion,
and less likely to burst – meaning fewer service disruptions and
increased reliability for our customers for many years to
come.”
Investing in water infrastructure is not just about safeguarding
public health and the environment; it’s also about laying the
groundwork for economic prosperity. California American Water
recognizes that access to clean water is vital for businesses to
thrive and communities to flourish.
