Document Description
The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan) proposes to remove the bats that are present within a rejection structure at the Robert A. Skinner Filtration Plant. The bats are accessing the rejection structure through a drain pipe that is connected to the structure. To prevent further access to the pipe, Metropolitan proposes to seal the opening late at night, while the bats are away foraging. Metropolitan also proposes to vacuum the rejection structure and disinfect the structure with chlorine solution following removal of the bats.
