Document Description
Metropolitan proposes to authorize preliminary design, studies, and preparation of environmental documentation for improvements to the Rialto Pipeline. The 30-mile-long Rialto Pipeline extends from the California Department of Water Resources' Devil Canyon Power Plant in the city of San Bernardino to Metropolitan's San Dimas Flow Control Facility in the city of San Dimas. The improvements, which include installation of isolation control structures at strategic locations along the pipeline and a pump system, would minimize impacts to member agencies during scheduled or emergency repairs and increase Metropolitan's operational flexibility.
