1 City of Inglewood Well No. 2 Rehabilitation City of Inglewood Thomas Lee

2 Project Location (Photos and location maps of the project)

3 Project Description The City of Inglewood (City)receives its annual potable water supply from two sources: 8,000 acre-feet from MWD and 2,000 acre-ft from the City owned wells. In recent years the production from wells has decreased substantially, primarily due the age of wells. The rehabilitation will enhance local groundwater production and reduce dependence on imported water.

4 Drought Connection Well No. 2, after rehab will produce approx acre-ft per year, way higher than its recent production of 240 acre-ft per year. It will alleviate local and state level drought situation. If the project is not implemented, the City will need to purchase additional water from MWD that is dependent on SWP and Colorado River. The extra purchase will be at tier 2 rates that will have adverse impact on City finance.

5 Benefits Increased local groundwater production to 600 ac-ft per year. The City will be in a position to use more of its adjudicated water rights of 4,489 acre feet per year. Safe, reliable and good quality water will be available to residents/businesses at affordable rates.

6 Project Details Funding: Total Project Cost: $250,000 Grant Request: $187,500 Matching Funds (Amount and %): $62,500 (25%) Funding: The City is a DAC

7 Project Status Status and schedule of the project: Existing NPDES Permit is still valid for Inglewood groundwater discharge during the rehabilitation. No new permit required. The CEQA will be filed as Categorical Exemption for Existing Facility with LA County Clerk Office. Contract award date: February 15, 2015 Ground breaking/begin implementation date: March 1, 2015 Complete construction, end implementation date: July, 2015

8 Questions Please contact Thomas Lee, P.E. at or

9 Terminal Island WRP Advanced Water Purification Facility and Distribution System Expansion LADWP Water Recycling Planning Group

10 Project Description 1: The Terminal Island WRP Advanced Water Purification Facility is currently under planning to expand the production of highly purified recycled water from 5600 AFY to AFY. The Project expands the capacity of the currently limited MF/RO treatment train and adds an advanced oxidation process (AOP) to produce high quality water. 2: Approximately 9,000 linear feet of pipeline is currently under design and will be constructed to reach all planned and potential recipients of product water from TIWRP. All components of the project will be completed by October 2017.

11 Project Description (con t) The project satisfies the following elements: Drought Project Element: Provide immediate regional drought preparedness Increase local water supply reliability and the delivery of safe drinking water. IRWM Project Element Water supply reliability, water conservation, and water use efficiency. Groundwater recharge and management projects Contaminant and salt removal through reclamation, desalting, and other treatment technologies and conveyance of reclaimed water for distribution to users. Water banking, exchange, reclamation, and improvement of water quality. Ecosystem and fisheries restoration and protection

12 Drought Connection The Terminal Island WRP Expansion and AWPF implementation will produce an additional 7280 AFY of advanced purified recycled water to offset potable demands in the Los Angeles Harbor Area. The expansion of the distribution system will allow industrial customers to use recycled water instead of potable water. If the expansion does not take place, up to 7280 AFY of imported MWD potable water will be used for nonpotable uses.

13 Benefits The primary benefit provided by the project is the additional 7280 AFY of highly purified recycled water the TIWRP AWPF will produce upon completion of this project. The majority of the water will be used to offset potable water demand in the region with a consistent, drought-proof source of high quality water. Up to 8000 AFY of the highly purified recycled water will be provided to the Dominguez Gap Seawater Intrusion Barrier (operated by LA County DPW and the Water Replenishment District) for injection into the groundwater to prevent seawater intrusion AFY will be provided to industrial customers to offset potable water use for industrial uses. 400 AFY will be provided to irrigation customers to offset potable water for irrigation. 840 AFY will be provided to Machado Lake to offset potable water use for lake make up and TMDL pollutant control. Additional customers for the remaining 2000 AFY of highly purified water are currently being acquired to offset potable demand with a consistent, droughtproof source of high quality water.

14 Project Details Funding: Total Project Cost: $74,540,800 Grant Request: $2,500,000 Matching Funds: $72,040,800 (97%) Partners: City of LA DPW, LASAN and BOE

17 Other Considerations Provides a consistent, drought-proof source of high quality water to offset potable water demand by providing recycled water for non-potable uses, and eliminated imported water use for groundwater injection to protect the West Coast Basin from seawater intrusion to Wilmington, West Long Beach, Lomita/Southwest Carson, Central San Pedro, Central Long Beach communities Climate change is contributing to the reduction of water supplies in the region. This project will produce highly purified recycled water to offset potable demand in the region.

18 Goldsworthy Desalter Expansion City of Torrance Robert Beste, Public Works Director

19 Project Description The Goldsworthy Desalter Expansion Project will increase the amount of local water supply by 2,500 acre-feet per year by constructing two new groundwater wells and doubling the capacity of the existing Goldsworthy Desalter from 2,500 to 5,000 acre-feet of year.

20 Project Description

21 Drought Connection The Goldsworthy Desalter taps into the Saline Plume under Torrance to produce an additional 2,500 AFY of water above the City s adjudicated groundwater rights. If this project is not completed then the City of Torrance will need to continue to provide 2,500 AFY of imported water.

22 Benefits The Goldsworthy Desalter Expansion project will provide 2,500 AFY on new local water. The project will help stabilize water rates. The project will increase local water supply in case of emergency. The project will provide the highest quality water. Project prepared per Feasibility Study for Expansion of Robert W.
