Requirements

  • Installation of a new dedicated 5.25 mile 20-inch transmission line of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) from potable water well field parallel to the existing failing 12-inch pipeline. The new transmission line will be installed adjacent to the gravel road, with required separation to prevent accidental damage to the existing potable water main during construction and future repairs. The new HDPE transmission line will provide increased resiliency via increased flow and pressure criteria as well as fusion welded joints that are inherently restrained from thrust forces that can cause pipe joints to separate
  • Installation of two new Storage Tanks (2.06 Mgal total capacity) along a ridge above FHL at an elevation of 1,250 ft (with provisions for future expansion). The new Storage Tank site design is based on the recommendations per the Jacobs Engineering Design Analysis Report (May 30, 2024). The new Storage Tanks will modernize the existing 1.2 Mgal to provide the required volume to meet current National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and California Fire Suppression standards of 2.0 Mgal
  • Construction of a 4,500 ft access road to access the new Storage Tank site. The 35% design recommended by the Geotechnical Engineer recommends the Storage Tank site’s access road grade not exceed 10% to avoid issues with vehicle traction in wet weather. This site constraint is reflected in the cost estimate
  • Upgrades to existing antiquated Potable Water Source Well facilities including ancillary equipment and building repairs including: chemical feed equipment, HVAC, life safety, security, SCADA-controls, and backup power systems
