West Slope Seismic Water Storage Project

The District is proposing to construct a new 3.0 million gallon earthquake-resilient finished water reservoir. This project will replace aging, non-resilient storage and increase total system capacity from 5.25 MG to 8.25 MG, helping the District move closer to the industry standard of three days of peak demand storage, while improving system reliability and enhancing emergency preparedness.
