The improvements will increase the useful life of the facility and improve access to key equipment for efficient operations and maintenance by staff. The project will also improve the daily operation of reclaimed water service to customers in the south county area by replacing a manual system with an automated system which will improve consistency of reclaim water pressure from the McKay booster station.
Background Information:
The McKay Creek station is a major part of the south county system that provides customers with reclaimed water for irrigation. The station consists of a five (5) million gallon storage tank, three (3) booster pumps, and associated valves and piping necessary to maintain adequate flow and pressure throughout the system.
