Serving Crooked River Ranch since 1974
The water system started construction in 1973 by Bill MacPherson and was completed in 1988 at the cost of 1 million dollars. At that time, the water system served 450 homes but was capable of serving 1200 homes. In 1978 Crooked River Ranch Water Company was separated from the original development and became its own company. Today we serve over 1600 homes, and we deliver over 200 million gallons of water annually to our members.
Our water is delivered to our members unfiltered and with no chemicals added. In 2014 and 2020 our water was voted the best tasting water in Oregon. There are 2 wells in operation today. Well 5 is our newest well and is over 1000' deep and produces 1200 gallons a minute. Well 4 was built in 1997, it is over 900' deep and produces 700 gallons a minute.
The water tower serves as our sole storage facility. Built-in 2016 by Landmark Structure, this water tower was the first of its kind in Oregon. The tower holds just over 1 million gallons of water and stands 120' tall.

Rate Increase Application Submitted to Oregon PUC
Crooked River Ranch Water Company submitted a general rate filing to the Commission on March 13, 2025. We are seeking to increase our annual revenue by $80,801 above the $1,361,818 we collected in 2024. The purpose of this announcement is to provide you with general information regarding the proposed rates and the effect the filing may have on you.
Current revenues are insufficient to cover the costs required to provide safe, reliable, and adequate service. Since the last Rate Case, expenses have increased by 9% overall. Power costs alone have risen by 26%. Additionally, wages and insurance have increased by 14% as efforts are made to maintain compensation levels that retain skilled and certified workers.

Lead and Copper
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) adopted revisions to the Lead and Copper Rule in 2021 that include a requirement for public water systems to conduct inventories of service lines and to identify service line material. The intent of the service line inventory is to identify those service lines made of lead so that they can be scheduled for removal and replacement.
We are pleased to confirm that the Crooked River Ranch Water has complied with the Lead and Copper Rule Revision. As part of our commitment to ensuring the safety and quality of our drinking water, we have conducted an assessment of our water infrastructure using public records, historical plan reviews, customer information as well as physical inspections.
All of our evaluations have confirmed that there are no lead service lines present within CRRWater system. We remain dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of public health and safety, and we will continue to monitor our water systems regularly to ensure ongoing compliance with all regulatory requirements.
New Way to pay your bill. Coming Spring of 2025
We have contracted with Springbrook Software to upgrade our utility billing software. We will move to Express Bill Pay as part of this upgrade in the spring. Xpress Bill Pay has many great features that are currently unavailable, such as access to a mobile app, water usage records, billing history, and more.
More information will come out as we get it.
