Always Thinking About Water to Provide You the Best.
Protecting the quality, quantity, and reliable delivery of water is our 24/7/365 priority and serious responsibility. We are continually working on new ideas, plans, and projects to ensure Thornton is ready for whatever the future holds.
Drought status:
Drought Watch
The city is currently in “Drought Watch” due to drought conditions predicted to persist in the Front Range. Customers are encouraged to be efficient with their water usage and adhere to the city’s Outdoor Water Use Rules, outlined on the Saving Outdoors page. Learn more about the stages of drought on our Restrictions and Drought page and ways to save water from our FAQs.
Know Thornton’s Current Water Use Rules
With about half of residential water use occurring outdoors during spring and summer months, we need to work together to use water responsibly. Learn more about the watering rules and how to follow Thornton’s Watering Guide on our Saving Outdoors page.
