Ontario's Water Supply

In the lands of medium rainfall the water supply is a matter to be carefully considered.  Ontario has carefully considered this matter and has provided a supply of cool, pure water, brought from the mountain streams and from wells and water tunnels on the mesas, that is unequaled.  The San Antonio Water Company, a mutual company owned by the land owners, furnishes the water for the irrigation of 5000 acres of orange and lemon groves, and the supply is sufficient to insure at all times all the water that this vast tract will ever require.  There are several smaller irrigation companies that have an abundant supply of water.

SAN ANTONIO CREEK, WHERE MOST OF ONTARIO'S WATER SUPPLY COMES FROM
(7.75" X 3.75")

The domestic water is supplied by the City Water Department and looking well to the future, the city of Ontario is now putting down additional wells and planning an extension of its water system that will at its completion be adequate for all future needs of "The City that Charms."

Ontario is particularly fortunate in the abundance and permanency of  its water supply.
