Water Department
The City of Bentonville Water
Utilities Department operates and maintains a water distribution system and a
sewer collection system. Bentonville purchases its water from Beaver Water
District which obtains and disinfects the water from Beaver Lake. Our Water
Utilities Department is made up of 39 full time employees who are dedicated to
provide the residents of Bentonville with professional and prompt service. Our
water system has a 1 million gallon elevated storage tank located on Water Tower
Rd, a 2 million gallon elevated storage tank on NW 12th street and 2
ground storage tanks of 3 million gallons and 6 million gallons located on
Walton Blvd. These storage facilities allow Bentonville to have appropriate
water storage for peak demand and to supply adequate pressure. Our Sewer
Collection system is made up of sewer main lines and manholes. The purpose of
the sewer collection system is to provide a route for wastewater to reach the
Bentonville Wastewater Treatment plant through sewer main lines which vary in
size from 6” to 24” while travelling through some of our 3,000 manholes.
If you are
having problems after hours and need assistance the Water Utilities Department
has personnel on standby around the clock. Just call the after hours number,
271-3160, describe the situation, and the appropriate personnel will be paged
to come out and assist you.
