Description: Polygons delineating the water franchise areas in Pierce County. The franchise granted allows the holder of the franchise to operate in County Right-of-Ways, though it is possible that the holder of the franchise does not provide service in all of their franchise area. This data was updated in 2008 where known changes had occurred but should be used with caution. Please read metadata for additional information (https://matterhorn.co.pierce.wa.us/GISmetadata/pdbpubw_franchise_water.html).
