The SNWA was established in 1991 to address water issues on a regional, rather than local basis, and to ensure a safe, reliable water supply. The SNWA is committed to managing the region's most precious resource and developing solutions to ensure water quality and adequate future water supplies for Southern Nevada. In addition, the SNWA educates customers to use water more efficiently, promoting conservation to help ensure the long-term viability of our region's water supply. With the help of an active citizen's advisory committee, the SNWA has established an ambitious annual water conservation goal of 25 percent by year 2010. The SNWA is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of one representative from each of the seven SNWA member agencies: the cities of Boulder City, Henderson, Las Vegas and North Las Vegas; the Big Bend Water District; Clark County Sanitation District and Las Vegas Valley Water District.
