Addendum to the Inland Empire Utilities Agency's Facilities Master Plans PEIR for the 930 Zone Recycled Water Projects

Note: Addendum 14 day review period The proposed Wineville Recycled Water Pipeline Project is being developed by the Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA or Agency) in cooperation with the City of Fontana and the Fontana Water Company. This project is a second-tier project (Phase II) being implemented under the Recycled Water Master Plan element of the Agency's Facilities Master Plans (FMP) Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR). The IEUA's goal is to reuse, to the extent practicable, recycled water that is produced at IEUA's Regional Wastewater Reclamation Facilities (WWRFs). Primary goals are to reduce dependency of the Chino Basin on imported State Water Project (SWP) water; to offset pumping that exceeds the Basin's safe yield; and to improve groundwater quality in the Basin. Earlier this year contract was issued to Mike Bubalo Construction Co., Inc. for the construction of the Wineville Segment "B" recycled water system. As part of the Company's due diligence, it conducted a "value engineering" assessment of the original Wineville recycled water pipeline alignments. As a result of this value engineering assessment, the Company suggessted that IEUA consider an alternative alignment for a portion of the Segment B alignment. After careful review, IEUA concluded that Option A would meet the objectives of providing recycled water to local public landscaped areas and it would reduce the total lineal footage of recycled water pipeline to be installed by approximately 2,400 lineal feet. At this point IEUA requested an environmental evaluation of the potential environmental effects of installing the Option A alignment of the Wineville Recycled Water Pipeline alignment compared to that approved by both IEUA and the State Board. This Addendum has been prepared to address the Option A alignment.
