We are an investor-owned domestic water provider in Southern California. The company field and other personnel are considered to be first responders in case of emergency -- think earthquake or other incident that could impact supply or quality of water. We want the extra half tank to enable us to respond in case of power disruption.
We have 75,000 service connections within a service area of about 35 square miles measuring 20 miles from one end to another end. About half the area in the eastern San Gabriel Valley and the balance in the Whittier-La Mirada area.
