Plant F41A Replacement Project

Plant F41A Replacement Project

The FWC water supply system includes 34 operating groundwater wells which supply water to the FWC system. One of the existing FWC wells, Well F41A, was constructed in 1925and has been producing water from the Lytle Creek Groundwater Basin (Lytle Creek Basin) for more than 85 years. While attempting to refurbish existing WellF41A, FWC determined the existing well casing had collapsed. The age of the well and the weakness of the casing, combined with the loss of water flow from the well after relining, make it impractical to refurbish the existing well and more economical and water production efficient to abandon the existing well and construct a new replacement well. Existing Well F4iA is no longer serviceable and has been taken out of production by FWC. FWC has selected a site that meets the identified criteria for location of the replacement well. FWC has designated the replacement site as Plant F54A and designated replacement well as Well F54A. In addition to constructing and operating the replacement well, this project will include the installation of an underground water pipeline to connect the new Plan F54A Well to FWC's existing water distribution system. The existing Plant F41A Well will be abandoned and filled in accordance with CDPH standards for the destruction of water production wells.
