About TriRiver Water

TrRiver Water


As of July 1, 2024, TriRiver Water is the water and wastewater provider for the City of Sanford and the Town of Pittsboro.

The City of Sanford announced on March 27, 2024, it would provide utility services under the new name, which aligns with the expanded scope of the City’s water and wastewater services. With Sanford’s new role of utility provider for Pittsboro, the name TriRiver Water better reflects Sanford’s growth from a local utility to a regional one.

Along with water and wastewater treatment and distribution, TriRiver Water will handle all engineering services related to water and wastewater projects for the City of Sanford and the Town of Pittsboro.

While TriRiver Water is different than what customers are used to, the level of service provided to customers will remain the same.
