Document Description
The Calleguas Municipal Water District (Calleguas) proposes to implement the Smith Road Tank (Proposed Project), which includes the construction and operation of a 43-foot-tall by approximately 125-foot-diameter above-ground steel water storage tank with a storage capacity of approximately 3.5 million gallons. The storage tank would be constructed on an approximately 4-acre property that is currently an undeveloped, unoccupied parcel, located directly east of Kuehner Drive and north of Smith Road in eastern Simi Valley. The tank would connect to the Calleguas Conduit South Branch and Calleguas Conduit North Branch pipelines located beneath Smith Road, directly south of the Project site. The Proposed Project's objectives are to provide additional water storage capacity to meet the peak hourly demands in the Simi Valley Region during imported water supply outage conditions; provide operational benefits during normal and high demand conditions; provide a reserve of water that can be used during supply interruptions, such as maintenance work, power outages, or natural disasters; help maintain consistent water pressure throughout the distribution system; and in case of emergencies, such as fires, provide an immediate source of water for firefighting and other critical needs.
