The Byron Sanitary District was formed in 1948 and became operational in 1958. It
operates pursuant to the Sanitary District Act of 1923 (Health & Safety Code. Section
6400 et seq.). The District is located in eastern Contra Costa County, on both sides of Byron Highway at Camino Diablo. It encompasses the unincorporated community of Byron.

It is an independent special district. A five-member board of directors, elected at-large,
governs the District. A General Manager is responsible for administrative functions.

The District's boundaries includes fewer than 250 acres

The District collects, treats and disposes of wastewater. It services 173 connections,
which represent about 367 Equivalent Residential Units (EDUs). It serves approximately
152 residences, 30 commercial facilities, a 540-student elementary school and a County-
owned youth rehabilitation facility.

The District has issued a franchise agreement with Garaventa Enterprises of Concord for
refuse collection and recycling services in Byron, the district will receive $4,200 in franchise fees.

All District services are provided within its boundaries, except for an agreement to treat
effluent from the Orrin Allen Youth Rehabilitation Facility, previously called Byron
Boys Ranch, a nearby County-owned and operated juvenile correctional facility. This is
the District's only out-of-agency service; it is also outside of the District's Sphere of
Influence. This arrangement became effective in 1959, and was amended and renewed
by the County several time.
