Banks Water-System Reliability Improvements
This multi-system improvement project includes 5 mini infrastructure projects: Northstar Valve Vault replacement to restore and bring the reservoir online; Cedar Canyon Road boring to install a new creek crossing; Banks Road Reach B waterline upgrade to fix leaks; Carsten Reservoir #2 rehabilitation to address deteriorating coating and evaluate cathodic protection; and Slow Sand Filter optimization upgrades (combining springs diversion path/ structure and mechanical prefiltration unit) to increase source flow to TP and reduce silt in raw water.
