Project Name: Washington Well Project <br />2. Local Project Sponsor (if different than grantee): Same as grantee <br />3. Please provide the latitude and longitude of the project site. For linear projects or those <br />covering a large area, report the coordinates for a central point. If this information is <br />confidential, it must be clearly labeled "confidential." You can find the latitude and longitude <br />easily using google maps.

Please briefly describe the proposed project. <br />The construction of the proposed Washington Well Project (Project) will address the <br />low pressure deficiencies in the northeastern portion of the Low Zone on the south <br />side of Interstate 5 between East 17th Street and East 1st Street, as identified in the <br />2017 Water Master Plan. Without this new well in the vicinity of the Elevated Tank, <br />the water pressure in this area may continue to drop and could reach a level of <br />service that is not adequate and will result in other consequences such as fire- <br />fighting capacity. In addition to improving system reliability and flexibility, the <br />Washington Well will add pumping capacity to the city system and enhance the City's <br />drought resiliency by reducing reliance on imported water. Similar to the City's other <br />wells, the Washington Well is proposed to be drilled to a depth of about 1,300 feet <br />below ground surface and be installed with minimum of an 18-inch diameter casing. <br />The design capacity of the well will be about 2,500 to 3,000 gpm (-4,000 AFY) well <br />pump flow range; design head of about 400 to 450 feet; and the well pump will be <br />driven by a 3SO to 400 HP electric motor. Construction will include the City's typical <br />well to system mechanical piping layout, electrical equipment (e.g. include <br />switchgear, control panels, variable frequency drive, telemetry, lighting, <br />programming, etc.) and well discharge to waste piping for use during well testing and <br />start up. <br />The water produced from the proposed well will be disinfected using sodium <br />hypochlorite (NaOCL) before it is discharged into the water distribution system. The <br />disinfection equipment will be housed in a chemical facility building, separate from <br />the well building. The City has standardized the utilization of On -Site Generation <br />(OSG) at all of their well sites to produce a 0.8% solution of sodium hypochlorite for <br />disinfection using salt, softened water and electricity. Additionally, the system <br />components include a water softener, bulk storage tanks for salt and NaOCL solution, <br />metering pumps, a brine saturator, an electrolytic cell, and an electric rectifier. <br />The proposed well building will have three separate rooms, housing the well head <br />City Council 36 — 8 12/21/2021 <br />
