Let's Do More, Together
The results are in! After three years of analysis by Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), the Los Angeles 100% Renewable Energy Study (LA100) is complete and confirms that a 100% renewable power system is achievable! And more importantly, LA100 also underscores that in order to achieve our goals and meet L.A.'s clean energy targets, we need your help. Customer participation in programs like energy efficiency, electric vehicles, and solar will be key to achieving a 100% renewable energy future for L.A.

This Earth Day, April 22, take a moment to learn more about the LA100 results and consider how you can be part of the effort to build a stronger and more vibrant Los Angeles. Community meetings coming soon! Check www.ladwp.com/LA100 for updates.
Public Comment Period Extended to May 14!
A Program Environmental Impact Report is being prepared for the proposed Operation NEXT Water Supply Program developed by LADWP in partnership with LASAN’s Hyperion 2035. Dubbed as LA's next major water source, Operation NEXT will allow for 100% recycling of available treated wastewater for beneficial reuse that will help L.A. to achieve long-term sustainability goals.

Essential Work Continues
Once a year we close down our Los Angeles Aqueduct Filtration Plant (LAAFP) for about two weeks to do regular maintenance in order to ensure our customers receive the highest quality drinking water possible. The Los Angeles Aqueduct Filtration Plant, one of the largest and most advanced treatment plants of its kind in the world, cleans and purifies up to 600 million gallons of water a day.
