Document Description
The project entails the construction and operation of a remediation system designed to treat nitrate-contaminated water in a floodplain aquifer at the boundary of the Centro and Baja Subareas of the Mojave River Groundwater Basin underlying that portion of the City of Barstow commonly known as the Soapmine Road area. The project is undertaken pursuant to a directive from the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board to implement a plan for remediation. The goal of this project is to remove 1.44 million gallons a day of nitrate laden water from the Soapmine Road area, treat the extracted water, and discharge the treated water to the City of Barstow Water Reclamation Facility for recharge back into the aquifer. A portion of this project (along Clay River Road) is located in the unincorporated county.
