Bonta Pump Station

Bonta Pump Station

City council approval for land acquisition and to allow for the construction of an approximately 1,075 sf (43 ft by 25 ft) Direct Transfer Station in the unincorporated community of Bonita in the County of San Diego. The DTF would provide an intertie from Sweetwater Authority's potable water system to the City's potable water system, allowing the City to transfer up to 2,600 acre ft per year from Sweetwater. The City would be responsible for operations and maintenance costs on the water that is transferred based on the costs of an equivalent amount of water produced at the Richard A. Reynolds Groundwater Desalination Facility in Chula Vista, CA. The water is intended to be transferred during the warmer and drier periods of the year when the Otay service area demands are higher. This would allow the City to offset production from the Otay Water Treatment Plant, which may be blending local runoff with imported raw water from the San Diego County Water Authority.
