Phase II: June 2020 – Winter 2022; Pioneer Loop through Juniper Ridge to Clausen Road, west of Highway 97

Phase III: To be Determined; Clausen Road to O.B. Riley Road

Upcoming Phase I Activities

• Complete electrical conduit installation for the pump station and electrical building
• Installation of electrical building equipment and rough-in 
• Installation of equipment pads for pump discharge
• Begin installation of pumps and discharge pipeline
• Install diversion manholes west of the North Unit Main Canal

Upcoming Phase II Activities

• The Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for Phase II construction is scheduled to be presented to City Council on May 6, 2020.
