Annual Report 2025

Annual Report 2025

As we look to the next century of stewarding the Bunker Hill aquifer, we believe that policy gains purpose through the discipline of execution. To do this, we apply a data-driven approach to managing water and land, guided by the wisdom that progress must sustain both people and place. In 2025, that philosophy came to life. Despite a below-average year for rainfall and snowmelt, the District recharged 41,773 acre-feet of water—more than 13.6 billion gallons. Since 1912, we have captured more than 492 billion gallons, investing each season’s storms back into the Valley’s future.
