Check out these new photos of the future dechlor facility near #LakeJennings. Work started last month on underground piping & foundation prep. The dechlor building removes chlorine from the AWP water before pumping it into the lake.

The #EastCountyAWP Program has started to receive Reverse Osmosis (RO) equipment at the future AWP process building that’s currently under construction. RO is a critical treatment process involved in advanced recycled water treatment that removes impurities from recycled water.

The 18-inch pipeline weighs 54 pounds per foot, which required more than 100,000 pounds of pulling force for this operation. #EastCountyAWP

The purified water will mix with local and imported water then it will be treated at the R.M. Levy Water Treatment Plant and distributed to the community. #Lakeside
