Santiago Canyon Pump Station Improvements

Santiago.map.1224

The Santiago Canyon Pump Station Improvements project will enhance pumping capabilities in the canyon with improvements at Manning, Williams, Read, and Shaw pump stations. The project also calls for communications improvements at Shaw Reservoir and Williams Pump Station.

The scope of improvements will include new pumps, site work, piping replacement, electrical, instrumentation and communications upgrades to varying degrees based on the requirements for each location.

Temporary bypass pumping will be coordinated to keep communities in service during construction, but this work will result in temporary interruptions of service to complete pipeline connections.                                                                                                           

What: Improvements to water pumping at four locations in Silverado Canyon

When: February 2023 to July 2025

Where: Construction will take place at five locations, identified by number in the map above.

  1. 1. Shaw Reservoir
  2. 2. Shaw Pump Station
  3. 3. Read Pump Station
  4. 4. Williams Pump Station

2024:

December: Crews will be wrapping up work at Shaw Reservoir and the Williams and Shaw pump station locations this month. A temporary water shutdown is planned for residents near Shaw Pump Station on Dec. 18, following which their water pressure will be permanently adjusted. Work will begin in full-force at Read Pump Station, where crews will remove piping and preparing the site for the installation of a bypass system.

November: Testing at Shaw Pump Station will take place early in the month, marking the end of construction for that site by mid-month. Punch list items at Shaw Reservoir will also take place this month, to be followed by a few days of staff training on the new equipment. During the training, ample parking at the reservoir will be required to accommodate staff vehicles.

October: Testing will continue at Williams Pump Station early in the month, to be followed by punchlist items and the removal of construction equipment and materials. Testing will also be taking place at Shaw Pump Station through October, to be followed by a transition of power to a permanent generator and the removal of temporary equipment at the site.

September: Shaw Pump Station: Turbine pumps will be installed, along with associated pipe work. Electrical work will be done, including the installation of permanent power by Southern California Edison. New pipeline will be chlorinated and tested toward the end of the month before being connected to the permanent system. Williams Pump Station:Training and testing of new equipment will take place throughout the month. 

August: Shaw Pump Station: Work will continue on the installation of the vertical turbine pumps, including installation of electrical gear. Pipeline and valve installation will take place later in the month. Williams Pump Station: Electrical work will take place early in the month, along with hydrotesting of the permanent pipeline system. A temporary generator will be in use while a permanent generator is set up and connected to the system.

June: Work will continue at Shaw Pump Station, where underground conduit is being installed. Electrical equipment is being installed at Shaw Reservoir; and final coating of the Williams Pump Station will be done, to be followed by testing.

May: Notices were delivered for a water shutdown scheduled on May 7 to allow for pipeline work at Shaw Pump Station. Work will shift in the middle of the month to Shaw reservoir, where electrical gear will be installled and tested.

April: Work will continue at Shaw Pump Station. A water shutdown planned for April 3 has been canceled until mid-April. Notices will be distributed once a date is finalized.

March: Work will continue at Shaw Pump Station, including excavations for a bypass assembly, testing and chlorination of the system.

February: Work will begin at Shaw Pump Station and Shaw Reservoir. A temporary water shutdown is planned for this area on Tuesday, March 4.
