Project Overview

Basics

CLEAN AND ABUNDANT WATER FOR HUMAN COMMUNITIES
Improve Drinking Water Quality and Water Related Infrastructure to Protect Public Health
Collection System and Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements

  • Address Climate Change and Extreme Event Effects, Impacts and Vulnerabilities
  • Ensure that Disadvantaged and Underrepresented Communities Benefit from Initiatives
  • Promote Local Energy Independence, Water/ Energy Use Efficiency and Infrastructure Enhancements
  • Respect Local Autonomy and Local Knowledge in NCRP Planning and Implementation

NCRP IRWM Prop 1 Round 1 (DWR)
Implementation
The first component of the project is an enclosure for the WWTP disinfecting ozone equipment, which will house solar panels to power the WWTP. The I&I portion of the project tackles several areas of the collection system that were not included in the most recent 2008 collection system upgrade, as well as some of the issues that were caused during the replacement of sections of the collection system in 2008.

General Information

Project Description Narrative (1,000 character limit)
The Covelo CSD Collection System and Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Improvements project aims to reduce approximately 0.144 million gallons per day (MGD) of wet weather Inflow &Infiltration by upgrading the existing wastewater collection system. The project includes replacement of approximately 727 Linear Feet of sewer mains, approximately 16 laterals and 2 manholes. The project also includes a new enclosure for ozone equipment. On top of the new enclosure the project will include solar panels that will be designed to provide all the power the WWTP requires on an average day.
