The Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD), Pleasanton’s sewer service provider, is offering a three-week crash course to residents on the district’s operations.

The Citizens Water Academy is open to current DSRSD water and sewer customers who are at least 18 years old and want to learn about critical issues and projects related to water, wastewater and recycled water.

Participants will tour DSRSD facilities for a look at the inner workings of a wastewater and recycled water treatment plant, engage with experts over dinner and learn how rates and fees are set, where our water comes from, legislative and regulatory issues that could impact us and what is being done to develop alternative water supplies, DSRSD officials said.

Residents must apply by March 1 to participate. Sessions are set to run from 6-9 p.m. on March 14, April 11 and May 9 — all in the district office boardroom at DSRSD headquarters, 7051 Dublin Blvd. For more info, call Sue Stephenson at 875-2295 or email her at stephenson@dsrsd.com.
