REGIONAL GROUNDWATER PROJECT

GOAL: Reactivate one nitrate contaminated groundwater well (Old Baldy) and an additional well (Durward), and inject produced water into the Pomona-Walnut-Rowland (PWR) Joint Water Line for blending with imported water

The Project involves the production of Six Basins groundwater by the Agency. This project will reactivate one nitrate contaminated groundwater well (Old Baldy) and an additional well (Durward,) and add produced water into the Pomona-Walnut-Rowland (PWR) Joint Water Line for blending with imported water in order to meet potable water quality standards. Once completed, the project will provide an approximately 1,856 AFY of additional groundwater supply.
