The partnership aims to enhance drought resilience and water supply reliability by treating perchlorate contamination through a 200,000 acre-foot water supply agreement, officials said.

  • On September 5, 2025, Cadiz Inc. joined forces with local water agencies in San Bernardino, California, including the regional water district and Fontana Water Company, to collaborate on treating perchlorate pollution in the Rialto-Colton Groundwater Basin.
  • This partnership follows a 2024 water supply agreement between Cadiz and Fontana Water Company and aims to support San Bernardino Valley's Cactus Basins Recharge Program that was delayed due to contamination migration concerns.
  • Cadiz will supply specialized perchlorate filtration systems at Fontana Water Company facilities through its subsidiary ATEC Water Systems to mitigate contamination risks as recharge operations begin.
  • Heather Dyer called the program critical to water reliability, Susan Kennedy called cost-effective treatment technology exciting, and Marty Zvirbulis emphasized regional collaboration to maintain affordability.
