Ambler Park Water: State Lists 415 Connections and Three Active Groundwater Wells

AMBLER PARK, Monterey County — October 30, 2026. California’s Drinking Water Watch registry lists 415 connections for Cal Am Water Company — Ambler Park (system CA2710006): 406 residential and nine commercial. The state estimates a population served of 1,370.

Which wells are listed?

Three raw groundwater sources are designated active: Ambler Oaks Well, Well 04 and Well 06. Three others are designated inactive: Wells 01, 02 and 05. These are facility classifications in the state registry, not measurements of current pumping, water pressure or water quality.

Why does the distinction matter?

Knowing the named sources helps customers distinguish Ambler Park from the much larger California American Water main Monterey system. A well being listed as active is not evidence that it operates every day or that every household has identical water quality. To review compliance, compare the system’s current Consumer Confidence Report with state sampling and enforcement records. California58 previously reported separately on water test results and 2026 oversight records; this article covers the physical source inventory.

Who can answer questions?

The state lists the system contact phone as (831) 646-3205 and its Division of Drinking Water Monterey regulatory office as (831) 655-6939. For a specific home, confirm the service-area boundary rather than assuming all neighboring properties have the same supplier.
