The Santa Barbara County Water Quality Dashboard is being developed by LegacyWorks Group to create an information hub for drinking water quality in the county. Our goals are to provide the community with recent water quality data to help bring attention to potential quality issues, inspire additional data creation and transparency of data, and empower policy makers to make informed decisions in regard to water.

This site is divided into 4 main pages, containing data for both drinking water and groundwater quality. Drinking water quality is the quality of the water post-treatment or “at the tap” coming from municipal drinking water systems, while groundwater quality is raw water that hasn’t been treated coming from wells.
