The Lower Fountain Metropolitan Sewage Diposal District was formed in 1985 for the purpose of providing regional wastewater treatment service for areas located within the Jimmy Camp Creek Drainage Basin and the Sand Creek Drainage Basin. Current members of Lower Fountain District are the Colorado Centre Metropolitan District and the Fountain Sanitation District. As a regional entity, Lower Fountain is chartered to serve areas that do not receive wastewater utility service from another provider, including areas located outside of the City of Colorado Springs Service area.
