Water Districts

“Without your help, we would have probably made an uninformed decision that would have been viewed poorly by our constituents. We now believe that PJPA will be a beacon of how to do what is right in the design, bid, build world in which we both function.”

- Bill Papp, Chairman, Ponderosa Joint Power Authority (PJPA)
