The Millbrae City Water provides water for about 22,795 residents living in the Millbrae area, California. Established in 1948, the Millbrae City Water collects water purchased from the San Francisco Regional Water System (SFRWS), which is owned and operated by the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC). The major water source originates from spring snowmelt flowing down the Tuolumne River to storage in Hetch Hetchy Reservoir. Hetch Hetchy water is supplemented with surface water from two local watersheds: Alameda Watershed and Peninsula Watershed. In addition to these local sources, the State Water Resources Control Board's Division of Drinking Water (SWRCB-DDW) approved the SFPUC to use the surface water in Lake Eleanor, Lake Cherry and the associated creeks all conveyed via the Lower Cherry Aqueduct, Early Intake Reservoir and Tuolumne River (collectively known as Upcountry Non-Hetch Hetchy Sources, or UNHHS) as additional drinking water sources to the SFRWS.
