Document Description: EBMUD operates the Mokelumne Aqueducts, three large-diameter steel pipelines that transport water approximately 90 miles from the Sierra Foothills to treatment facilities and raw water reservoirs in the EBMUD service area. As the Aqueducts cross the Delta, they are elevated and subjected to the regional environment that has been characterized as moderately to extremely corrosive to ferrous metals. The Aqueducts are protected from corrosion by a coating system that requires periodic maintenance and occasional replacement. The project consists of recoating sections of the Aqueducts.
