New Drinking Water is Coming Soon

As early as late-2026, TVWD customers will start receiving drinking water from the new Willamette Water Supply System. The new system will deliver our community the water it needs to:

  • Restore critical water services more quickly after an earthquake,
  • Meet current and future water demands,
  • Be more prepared for droughts, wildfires, and severe storms, and
  • Have an additional backup supply to draw on.

Water will be drawn from the Willamette River in Wilsonville, treated at a new advanced facility, and then be delivered to TVWD for its customers. This new supply will replace the water TVWD currently buys from the Portland Water Bureau.
