Onsite Emergency Power Supply for Sanitary Sewer Lift Stations
Project Overview
Basics
Onsite Emergency Power Supply for Sanitary Sewer Lift Stations
- Address Climate Change and Extreme Event Effects, Impacts and Vulnerabilities
- Ensure that Disadvantaged and Underrepresented Communities Benefit from Initiatives
- Prioritize Plans, Projects and Actions that Result in Long Term Sustainability of Jobs & Revenues
- Promote Local Energy Independence, Water/ Energy Use Efficiency and Infrastructure Enhancements
- Protect and Enhance Watersheds and Ecosystems that Provide Water Quality and Supply Benefits
- Respect Local Autonomy and Local Knowledge in NCRP Planning and Implementation
NCRP IRWM Prop 1 Round 1 (DWR)
Implementation
Eleven lift stations will each be provided with onsite emergency power (generator); each generator will be structurally reinforced/ protected to withstand weather/ vandalism, and supplied with a fuel tank and an automated switch to respond to power failures. Goals: Protect water quality and public health by reducing potential for sanitary sewer overflows, Maximize life of generators and guarantee adequate fuel supply during emergencies, Improve work place safety and maximize staff availability during outages

General Information
Project Description Narrative (1,000 character limit)
Install onsite emergency power (generator) on approximately eleven lift sations; each generator will be structurally reinforced, protected to withstand weather, vandalism, and supplied with a fuel tank and an automated switch to respond to power failures. Each of the generators will be connected to the new SCADA (remote monitoring) system, reducing the potential for sanitary sewer overflows during power outages and providing water service without disruption for approximately 3,500 single-family connections.

Project Types
Project Types
Emergency power supply will insure that the sanitary sewer lift stations remain functioning during extreme events, protecting water quality by preventing SSOs.
By preventing SSOs, this project enhances watershed conditions.
Climate change is bringing more frequent, intense storms and power outages associated with those storms and shutoffs to prevent wildfire. This project enhances climate resiliency by ensuring that the sewer lift stations remain operational during these occurrences.
