The Legislature authorized the creation of public cemetery districts in 1909 to assume responsibility for the ownership, improvement, expansion, and operation of cemeteries and the provision of interment services from fraternal, pioneer, religious, and social organizations that were unable to provide for those cemeteries. Today, there are approximately 253 public cemetery districts in California, including the eight (8) districts in Butte County.

Surface water could easily supply the entire County, but the infrastructure necessary to transport surface water supplies to many of the County’s small, remote communities is not in place. Because of the difficulties related to developing and transporting surface water, groundwater is the most prominent source of water supply in the County. All development requires some means of collection, treatment, and disposal of wastewater to protect public health and the environment. Community wastewater systems in Butte County vary broadly in size, from serving a relatively small group of homes to a large incorporated city. Except for the individual septic systems regulated by the County Public Health Department (Environmental Health Division), all such systems are subject to the requirements of the Federal Clean Water Act and/or the State Porter Cologne Water Quality Act, which are administered in Butte County by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board.
