Site work for a water / sewer project in San Luis Obispo, California. Conceptual plans call for site work for a water / sewer project.

Replacement of water distribution pipes, mainlines, and related infrastructure is an ongoing program for reliable water distribution and fire protection. The City operates a complex potable water distribution system that is comprised of 15 distribution zones, nine potable water storage tanks, two reservoirs, five hydro-pneumatic tanks, seven pump stations, 21 pressure reducing valves (PRVs) and over 180 miles of pipe with diameters ranging in size from four inches to 30 inches. This project will replace critical infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life, experienced water main breaks, and is ranked as a high priority for replacement by the water distribution's infrastructure renewal strategy. The objective of the project is to replace cast-iron pipe or failing materials with pipe meeting new standards by the American Water Works Association (AWWA) to provide resiliency in the distribution network against variations in pressure and flows. Project is included in the City of San Luis Obispo's FY 2021-2025 CIP. As of November 7, 2022, information regarding a design team or a general contractor is not available.
