The Portland Water District was established in 1908.
The source of supply is Sebago Lake, about 17 miles
from Portland. The lake is a beautiful sheet of water
some 12 miles long 4 to 5 miles wide, containing
about 46 square miles of water surface. The elevation
of the lake is 272 feet above mean low tide in Portland
and the water flows by gravity to the city.
