Western Urban Water Coalition

Leaders of several western U.S. municipal water suppliers created the Western Urban Water Coalition (WUWC) in June 1992 to address the West’s unique water issues.

Faced with population growth, environmental demands and shrinking water supplies, these visionary leaders formed an alliance that is dedicated to new and creative approaches to meet future water demands in the West.

WUWC member agencies serve more than 35 million customers in the West’s largest metropolitan areas. The 15 water suppliers represent the states of Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon and Washington.
