This collection contains administrative papers, reports, and other reference materials from the library and offices of the San Diego County Water Authority.

The San Diego County Water Authority (SDCWA) was created June 9, 1944 by an act of the State Legislature. It was established as a public agency to administer the county’s Colorado River water rights. SDCWA officials work in Sacramento and Washington D.C. to monitor legislation with potential impact for the San Diego County region. The Water Authority promotes water conservation and reclamation programs, youth education, and other projects to improve the quality and reliability of local water supplies. By the early 2000s, the Water Authority included 24 member agencies around the county.
