Renovation of a water / sewer project in Simi Valley, California. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a water / sewer project.

This project proposes to install a new conveyance system to discharge effluent to the Arroyo Simi if the existing effluent discharge becomes submerged and inoperable during heavy rain events. The Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment and Management Plan that was prepared by Hazen, as a requirement of the WQCP's NPDES Discharge Permit, identified that the chlorine contact basin would be flooded if a storm event with a flood elevation greater than 658 feet were to occur. The FEMA 100-year base flood elevation (BFE) is 662 feet. The Plan recommends installing an emergency bypass line that conveys water from the chlorine contact basin and discharges into the Arroyo Simi at the southwestern end of the property boundary. The design is expected to be completed in October 2028 and construction is expected to be completed in October 2028. The design will begin in FY2026-27 As of April 08 , 2025 , This project is included in the County's 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
