General Info

Established in 1945, Ironhouse Sanitary District maintains sanitary services for nearly 30,000 customers in the Oakley and Bethel Island area. Based in Oakley, Calif., the district treats wastewater in its facility, which is then spread on its 3,600-acre Jersey Island fields. The fields provide an excellent source of grazing land for local cattle ranchers and a natural habitat for the Delta's wildlife and waterfowl, including some endangered species. It also allows fishing, hiking and pheasant hunting on its Jersey Island property by permit.
