Document Title: Proposition 50 Pipeline, Water Treatment and Storage Project SAA 1600-2009-0004
Document Type: NOD - Notice of Determination
Received: 2/1/2010

Document Description: The project proposes to construct a newly dedication water conveyance pipeline ~3.6 miles in length from Lake Pardee to a treatment facility located at Lake Amador Recreation Area (LARA) and then into the Jackson Valley servicing customers along the way. A 350 gallon per minute water treatment plant, and a 300,000 gallon storage tank will be incorporated into the system at the LARA facility. There will be a 16" raw water pipeline that will travel from the North Spillway of Lake Pardee down the Carson Creek Drainage to the treatment facility (a 1.1 mile section of pipeline). The route travels over rangeland which includes, California annual grasslands and Blue oak woodlanks while crossing three different creeks and drainages along the route. From the treatment facility into the valley there will be an 8" treated water pipeline installed that will take advantage of already existing roads and road easements until termination near the Oaks Community.
