Treated PRV Replacement Project (2026)

In February 2026, the District completed a project to upgrade four of eight Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) stations in our treated water distribution network. 

These stations, originally installed in the early 1990s, play a vital role in maintaining safe and consistent water pressure throughout the community. The upgraded stations feature new pressure-regulating valves, improved piping, a bypass for maintenance flexibility, and water meters. 

This project is an important investment in the long-term reliability and efficiency of our water system, and helps our field staff monitor water flows more closely, identify potential leaks sooner, and further support our ongoing water-conservation efforts.

PROJECT STATUS: Completed May 2026.
