Castle Pines North Metropolitan District is dedicated to providing safe, reliable water to all residents and businesses throughout the community.

Water Sources & Infrastructure

Water in the Castle Pines North Metropolitan District (CPNMD) originates from Denver Basin underground aquifers, which include the Arapahoe Lower Dawson and Denver basins. We also have access to 1,006 acre-feet of renewable water stored in Chatfield Reservoir.

Water is delivered to CPNMD water treatment plant, which produces up to 4.5 million  of water during peak summer months. Treated water is stored in the District's two storage tanks and supplied to customers on demand.
