2015 Water Supply Outlook

Algona's water supply is provided from Auburn's 10 groundwater wells, 2 springs, and connections with Tacoma's regional surface water system.  In response to this past winter's "snow drought" and the recent hot, dry weather, the City of Auburn has increased monitoring of the water supply from its wells and springs.

Auburn currently has sufficient water supplies to meet our citizen's needs.  However, if monitoring through the dry summer season begins to show a decline in available supplies, Auburn may need to implement portions of their Water Supply Contingency Plan to encourage customers to reduce consumption.  We will keep you informed if such measures become necessary.
