Document Description
The Project consists of the installation of a recycled water pipeline, a booster pump station, and a pump station at the RWQCP for the City of Palo Alto and represents the next increment of the Palo Alto Regional Water Quality Control Plant's (RWQCP) ongoing expansion of its regional recycled water system.
The proposed Project would involve the construction of approximately 5 miles of 12 to 18-inch recycled water pipelines, a booster pump station, approximately 5 miles of lateral pipelines to over 50 use sites, and a pump station at the RWQCP. The Project would initially serve approximately 900 AFY of recycled water, mostly to the Stanford Research Park Area. Future extensions could serve Stanford University and Los Altos Hills, as well as provide a loop by making a second connection to the Phase 2 Mountain View Project. The predominant use of recycled water for this Project is landscape irrigation. Some industrial use, such as commercial and light industrial cooling towers, could also be included at a later date.
