The San Dieguito Water District as a subsidiary district of the City of Encinitas Public Works Department is now an APWA Accredited agency.

The San Dieguito Water District provides potable (drinking) and recycled water to over 38,000 citizens in the communities of Leucadia, Old Encinitas, Cardiff and portions of New Encinitas (District Map).  The remainder of the City is served by the Olivenhain Municipal Water District.  The San Dieguito Water District is a subsidiary district of the City of Encinitas.  The City Council also serves as the Board of Directors of the District.

For potable water, the District receives local runoff water from Lake Hodges and imported raw water from the San Diego County Water Authority. Both sources are treated at the R.E. Badger Filtration Plant located in Rancho Santa Fe. The plant is jointly owned with the Santa Fe Irrigation District. Treated water from the San Diego Water Authority can also be delivered directly to the District.

Recycled water became available within the District in August of 2000. The source of the recycled water is highly treated wastewater from the San Elijo Water Pollution Control Facility located off of Manchester Avenue, just west of Interstate 5. Current customers include the Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, landscaped traffic medians, homeowner association common areas and parks.

The District consists of the following divisions:
