Folsom Lake Intake Improvements Project

Folsom Lake Intake Improvements Project

The proposed project includes: 1) constructing a temperature control device for EID's intake facilities in order to preserve the cold-water pool in Folsom Lake to help enhance downstream habitat for anadromous fish species, 2) replacing selected existing pumps with more reliable and efficient equipment, 3) installing infrastructure to provide raw water supply to meet the El Dorado Hills Water Treatment Plant's currently permitted capacity, and 4) improving and optimizing the intake system's appurtenant facilities. The proposed project does not increase the capacity or change the use of the existing facilities being replaced.
