1MG SCLA Reclaimed Water Reservoir 2

Description

The Project consists of constructing a new 1-million-gallon (MG) prestressed concrete circular reclaimed water reservoir at Southern California Logistics Airport (SCLA), located east of Westwinds Road and south of Montana Street (APN 0459-211-16) within the City of Victorville.The new reservoir will replace the existing 600,000-gallon in-ground rubber-lined pond used for reclaimed water storage. Because the pond is open to the atmosphere, it is susceptible to algae growth and debris accumulation, making it difficult to maintain water quality. The pond also experiences significant evaporation losses in this desert environment. Upon completion of the new reservoir, the existing pond and associated pumps, onsite piping, valves, and appurtenances will be decommissioned, removed, backfilled as necessary, and abandoned, thereby improving system reliability, operational efficiency, and overall water quality.The Project includes approximately 350 linear feet of onsite piping; approximately 1,380 linear feet of potable water main extension from George Boulevard and South Carolina Avenue to the project site; and construction of a new pump station. The pump station will include a prefabricated steel building to be furnished, fabricated, and delivered by the Contractor; installation of pumps, motors, valves, controls, instrumentation, mechanical and electrical systems; and a new electrical service. The reservoir will be supplied by existing 24-inch and 16-inch recycled water mains and will convey recycled water through the proposed pump station to the adjacent elevated tank serving the City’s recycled water distribution system. A proposed 12-inch potable water main extension will serve as a backup supply to the reservoir.
