Essential Construction and Field Work Continues

We hope your loved ones are safe and staying connected during these challenging times. The SFPUC is focused on the health of our teams and continued delivery of our critical water, power and sewer services. You may see our field or construction crews at work maintaining, repairing and upgrading our essential infrastructure. We are making sure they do so as safely as possible.  Thank you for your continued support.

We appreciate your support as we repair and upgrade the systems that serve you every day.

We maintain a complex system that provides water, power, and sewer service to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Your rates fund these critical services as well as system upgrades and maintenance that are necessary to keep our system reliable and efficient. We know construction projects have a big impact on those who live and work nearby, and we do our best to work quickly and efficiently so that projects are completed as soon as possible. Thank you for your support.
