Do you know how much the ground has subsided under the Friant-Kern Canal in the Tule Subbasin since 2020? According to a graphic shown by Friant Water Authority during the State Water Resources Control Board Probationary hearing, it looks to max out between mileposts 95 and 110 at around 1.85 feet. Do you know how much future subsidence was built into the Friant-Kern Canal Fix? I'll save you the research...it was 5 feet. That means 37% of the buffer is gone in that 15 miles. What maybe you didn't know was that the $300 million spent on the fix was just for Phase 1 (~10 miles of the 33-mile project), so the geographic limitation is causing additional potentially unexpected capacity constraints. Recent developments indicate that the newest subsidence along the canal is expanding further north and south than initially projected in the 2019 future subsidence document commissioned for the fix (see attachment C of appendix B1 of the EIS/R). The ongoing subsidence of the canal over the past 50 years is a concerning trend, leading to a loss in capacity corrections at this location. The solution, such as implementing more recharge or reducing pumping, is easier said than done. The challenge lies in executing these measures effectively to address the sinking canal before the 5-foot mark is reached. If it goes past this point before the basin becomes sustainable, another correction project will need to be undertaken. Fortunately, that was already factored into the current fix, so a second fix would likely only need to be a canal liner raise and bridge flashboards.

Water Supply Analysis of RUDN Enclave Phase-II on WaterGEMS

Cave Creek Water Reclamation Plant plays a crucial role in preserving Phoenix's water supply, now and for the future. Phoenix Water will start rehabilitation on the Cave Creek Reclamation Plant to renovate the plant and establish water purification capabilities using Advanced Water Purification, a proven technology currently used in California, Texas, and Singapore. After the renovation and obtaining the necessary permits from ADEQ (expected in 2026), the state-of-the-art purification facility will incorporate advanced treatment techniques such as Reverse Osmosis (RO) and Ultraviolet Advanced Oxidation Processes (UV AOP). This cutting-edge plant has the potential to yield a remarkable 6.7 million gallons of clean, drinkable water per day, catering to the needs of approximately 25,000 households on a yearly basis. Initially, the purified water will be directed towards local aquifers to replenish valuable groundwater sources. It may come as a surprise to many residents that Phoenix Water leads the way in water recycling and reuse. The department has one of the most extensive reclaimed water systems in the United States. Reclaimed water, also known as effluent water, currently serves numerous purposes, including irrigation for non-edible crops and industrial cooling for Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant. Every year, the Wastewater Treatment Plants produce a staggering 60 billion gallons of treated wastewater (effluent). #PhoenixWater #Phoenix https://lnkd.in/g8YbbpUR
