     California Water Service Group (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006 (the “2006 10-K”), originally filed on March 14, 2007, to correct an error on Exhibit 32, “Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer Certification pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 1350, as adopted pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.” As originally filed, Exhibit 32 incorrectly references the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 13,2006. The corrected Exhibit 32 attached hereto references the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2006.
     This Amendment No. 1 to the 2006 10-K should be read in conjunction with the Company’s filings made with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the 2006 10-K, including any amendments to those filings. The following items have been amended as a result of the corrections described above:
     
Exhibit 32.
  Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer Certification pursuant to 18 U.S.C. Section 1350, as adopted pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002
