The District is more than 40 years old and its aging infrastructure of collection and treatment systems require ongoing replacement and maintenance projects. With a relatively small ratepayer base, increasing costs are spread among fewer ratepayers. A proposed rate increase of 8.9% for the coming year will fund both ongoing and emergency repair projects. Rate increases in previous years have been in the 6% range in an effort to maintain lower rate increases. 

The Russian River County Sanitation District (District) began operation in 1983 and provides wastewater collection and treatment services for approximately 3,200 equivalent single-family dwellings in Rio Nido, Guerneville, Guernewood Park and Vacation Beach. Sonoma Water manages and operates the Russian River County Sanitation District. Learn more online at www.SonomaWater.org/RRCSD
