Except for finishing touches sewer expansion is complete


“Workers are putting the finishing touches on the new section of the Woods Valley Ranch Water Reclamation Facility, centerpiece of the $31 million, North-South Village Wastewater Reclamation Expansion Project”

The Valley Center Municipal Water District has largely completed work on the expansion of the North-South Village Wastewater Reclamation Expansion Project, which is an addition to the Woods Valley Ranch Water Reclamation Facility.

The project took about 18 months, but it was in the works for many years. The project was entirely funded by those who will be using the system, and not by ratepayers outside of the taxation district that was formed to fund the project. It was made possible by a low interest rate loan from the state’s Revolving Fund.

To date the district is $2 million or about 6.5% under the $31 millin budget that was authorized by the state.

The Treatment Plant is essentially done, there are only some minor site work and punch list items. The seasonal storage reservoir is completely done and the collection system is done with only a couple of punch list items to be completed.  For all intents and purposes, it’s done and operational.
