New Property Owner 

If you have purchased a home in the Groveland/Big Oak Flat area, the District will require a copy of the recorded deed to establish your new water/sewer service.

If the address on your deed does not reflect the address to which you would like your monthly bill sent, you will need to supply District staff with your desired contact information.

Please contact the District's Administration Office as soon as possible at (209) 962-7161 or info@gcsd.org.

How to Pay Your Bill 

Billing is processed on the first of every month, and due by the last day of the month. If payment is not received by the last day of the month, a 10% penalty will be assessed on the past due amount. 

The GCSD offers its customers the convenience of making payments in-person, over the phone or online. Autopay options are availble.

Water & Sewer Rates 

The GCSD obtains all of its water from the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission’s Hetch Hetchy Reservoir. This pristine water originates in Yosemite National Park as snow melt from a large watershed in the High Sierra. With controlled human contact and granite-type geology, the mineral content of this water is far lower than most bottled water, and the bacterial counts approach zero.

The GCSD's Water System distributes water to the populated areas of Big Oak Flat, Groveland, and Pine Mountain Lake. The GCSD water supply and distribution system includes 3 water treatment plants, 5 storage reservoirs, and approximately 70 miles of distribution piping. The District provides a treated water supply to approximately 3,500 customers.
