Eastside Water Bank Expansion Project

Eastside Water Bank Expansion Project

AVEK is proposing to expand the existing Eastside Water Bank facility to include three recharge basins east of the existing recharge ponds, three 18-inch turnout pipes, and a single 24-inch delivery pipeline. The three recharge basins would encompass 74 acres and would be located on a 160-acre parcel east of the existing recharge ponds. Operation of the project would involve the storing of surplus State Water Project raw water, which would be recharged into the local groundwater basin. Recharge is estimated to occur at a rate of 8,900 acre feet in 8 months. Excavations would be required to create the basins; excavated material would be used as fill material to construct the berms. The 24-inch delivery pipeline would accommodate gravity flow to the new basins. The new 24-inch delivery pipeline would connect to the existing 24-inch pipeline at the existing operation and control building located south of the existing recharge ponds and would exit the building in the south and traverse eastward towards the new recharge basins. Individual inlets to each of the three recharge basins would be through 18-inch pipes that connect to the 24-inch delivery pipeline. Access to the new facilities would be provided from East Avenue U via a 20-foot wide road that would encircle the recharge basins.
