Document Description
The State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) is a Responsible Agency for the Project. The State Water Board is funding the Project referred to internally as Water System Improvement and Treatment Project. The Project includes drilling four new municipal water wells to replace the existing water supply wells that exceed the State of California maximum contaminant level threshold for 1,2,3-trichloropropane (1,2,3-TCP), and occasionally the threshold for nitrates of 10 mg/L for nitrate as nitrogen. There will be a generator at each of the well locations, as well as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition updates. The four existing well sites, Wells No. 7, 8, 10, and 11, that are being replaced will be abandoned of all pump equipment, piping, electrical, and appurtenances. The Project also includes installation of a new granular activated carbon treatment system at the existing Well No. 12 facility to remove 1,2,3-TCP.
