Plan a Visit:

A tour of Desert Water Agency’s Operation Center can answer many questions you may have about water here in the Coachella Valley. In addition to fielding your questions, a representative will inform your group as to how we came to be, our functions, where your water supply comes from, and the key role conservation plays in our future water supply.

To assure our customers of a secure water supply, tours are limited to our Operations Center and do not include any offsite facilities. Nonetheless, we are sure participants will enjoy their informative visit.

Contact Desert Water Agency to schedule a visit.

Science Fair Workshop

Every year, Desert Water Agency conducts a Science Fair Workshop at its Operations Center. The workshop is designed to assist students with their science fair projects. During the workshop, project questions are entertained and experiment plans are presented. Basic information is also provided regarding how to produce a high quality project, along with an outline of common pitfalls.

The workshop is geared toward students of all ages, as well as teachers and parents, and is provided at no charge.

Typically, the workshop is held just before Thanksgiving. This allows students ample time to incorporate the information gathered from the workshop into their projects.
