Reservoir 3601-2

Reservoir 3601-2

The Reservoir 3601-2 project proposes the construction of a 1 million gallon water reservoir on the same 5-acre parcel of the existing 1 million gallon Reservoir 3601-1 that was constructed in 1965. The project includes shallow excavation to construct a concrete ring wall and all appurtenances necessary to connect the reservoir to the existing domestic water system on-site. The purpose of the Reservoir 3601-2 project is to provide additional water storage for increasing domestic water and fire protection demands within the Upper Improvement District 8 and Wide Canyon Pressure Zones, which include the areas around Sky Valley. This additional water storage reservoir will provide energy savings by alleviating the need to operate associated domestic water wells during peak electrical consumption periods. In addition, a second reservoir will allow removal of one reservoir from service for routine maintenance and repairs.
