- Gosselin Hydro-Electric Power House at Matthews Dam
- Diversion, pumping and control facilities adjacent to the Mad River near Essex at the John R. Winzler Pumping and Control Center
- Storage and treatment facilities
- Two separate and distinct pipeline systems which deliver treated drinking water or untreated raw water to the HBMWD's customers.
