MAINTENANCE DISTRICT 1, HIDDEN LAKES
Maintenance District 1, Hidden Lakes, is currently under
a building moratorium pending resolution of water system
issues. Building is limited to those parcels identified
as having already begun the permitting process prior to
December 6, 2005.
The district is located in the area of Millerton Lake on
its North Western shoreline. There are approximately 208
lots with 46 existing homes receiving water. Water is supplied
from Millerton Lake, which is fed from snow melt and stream
runoff from the San Joaquin River Watershed. The water is
received through an underwater intake structure and treated
by filtration and disinfection before being distributed
to the customers. The water system consists of a 60 gallon
per minute surface water treatment plant built in 1986.
Two pumps in the lake supply the plant with raw water and
two pumps at the plant supply a 135,000 gallon storage tank
with treated water. It is then distributed by gravity flow
to the district. The distribution system is steel pipe.
The water system is chlorinated to maintain disinfection.
Madera County Engineering Department routinely monitors
for contaminants in your drinking water according to Federal
and State laws. Our constant goal is to provide you with
a safe and dependable water supply. A Consumer Confidence
Report is prepared annually and delivered to all residents
served by the water district. These reports, prepared especially
for this district, are available for viewing below. Adobe
Acrobat Reader, which may be downloaded free of charge from
Adobe’s website, is required to view and/or print
them. Be aware that there is a one year lag time in these
reports; i.e., the report dated 2004 contains test results
collected in 2004, but the report is not written or released
until approximately June, 2005. Future dates will be posted
as they become available.
