Zone C · El Dorado Irrigation District
Irrigation repair
in Cameron Park.
Cameron Park sits inside El Dorado Irrigation District, which matters for a reason most people never hear about: EID’s conservation rebate carries no licensed-contractor requirement. We are not a licensed contractor and we say so on every page of this site — and in EID territory that costs you nothing, because the district’s own 2026 form does not ask. In Roseville it would disqualify the work entirely. Same job, two counties, opposite answer.
The rules that apply to your address
Cameron Park water rules.
Up to $250 per service account in 2026, first come, while funding lasts. Tier 1, up to $100: high-efficiency toilets and washers, weather-based irrigation controls, irrigation efficiency upgrades, recirculating pumps, pool covers, rain barrels. Tier 2, up to $250: an electronic flow monitoring device on the potable service line. Requirements are a dated sales receipt and a signed application within 60 days of purchase — and nothing else. No licence, no permit, no inspection.
We would rather you knew the shape of this. Roseville’s leak rebate pays up to $750 and does require a licensed contractor, so work we perform there does not qualify. Sacramento Suburban’s leak rebate does not require one. The rule is set by whoever bills you for water, not by the work.
EID publishes no leak-repair rebate and no bill-forgiveness programme. We are stating the absence deliberately: if someone tells you a repair up here pays for itself through a rebate, they have confused EID with another district.
Administrative Regulation 1041 applies all year under all conditions, and prohibits operating an irrigation system that is in disrepair or that sprays an impervious surface, plus irrigating within 48 hours of measurable rain. Penalties run from a written warning to $100, $200 and $500. There are no assigned watering days — that schedule was rescinded in 2016.
EID runs 200 pressure regulation zones over an elevation range from 500 feet to more than 4,000, and states that the pressure regulator is the homeowner’s responsibility and lasts roughly 10–15 years. A regulator that has quietly failed will destroy fittings for years before anyone connects the two.
