Western Municipal Water District (WMWD) and Riverside Public Utilities (RPU) have a
strong history of working together to find solutions to meet the region’s water needs.
In 2017, an agreement was reached for WMWD to purchase excess or surplus water that the
City of Riverside has in the San Bernardino Basin Area as well as pay to transport or
"wheel" Western water from the Basin into its service area.
