The dual role of Flood Control is one of the reasons for our wide jurisdiction and influence, but it is also a source of confusion from time to time. It is very important that we all understand the differences between them.

We wear two different hats in Flood Control:

• Flood Control Division of the County Public Works Department
  • (Flood Control Division)
• Staff of the Contra Costa County Flood Control & Water Conservation District
  • (Flood Control District)
