Title

Devil Canyon Well No. 8 Project

Description

The objective of the proposed well, Devil Canyon Well No. 8, is to continue to increase the SBMWD's water production capacity to meet peak day demand requirements of existing development and future connections. The SBMWD's proposes to construct the new well and related appurtenances within the City of San Bernardino. The new well is anticipated to be drilled to a depth of ~400ft. below ground surface (bgs). The well is anticipated to yield ~2,000gal./min. (gpm). Water pumped from the proposed well will be treated with chlorine gas at the well site to provide disinfection. The drilling and development of the proposed well will take ~3 to 4 weeks. The well site is proposed to be equipped with a submersible pump and matched control panel. The pump motor will be installed above ground. The well site will consist of a 20in. well casing, cement grout and gravel pack, a screened air vent, and a 2in. sounding tube. A well housing will enclose the permanent facilities. In addition, the project includes the installation of a chlorinator building for onsite disinfection, a Southern California Edison vault, a block wall to surround the proposed facilities and security gates.
