Park Water가 최근 중앙분지의 수자원 지역인 E. Thornton Ibbetson Century의 물 재사용 프로젝트를 운영하고 유지하는 현재의 계약을 2년 간 연장했다고 밝혔다. Park Water사는 로스앤젤레스 동남쪽에 위치하며, 12만6천명에게 물 관련 서비스를 제공하고 투자하는 공익 기업이다.

계약의 총 가치는 50만 달러이며, 계약이 연장됨에 따라 Park Water는 중앙분지 5천 에이커 피트에 70피트 길이의 배수조직을 이용, 2017년까지 매년 재활용수를 제공할 예정이다.

 

 

 

Park Water Company, an investor-owned water utility delivering water service to about 126,000 people in Southeast Los Angeles County, recently announced that it has been awarded a two-year extension for its current contract to operate and maintain Central Basin Municipal Water District's E. Thornton Ibbetson Century Water Recycling Project.

 

The total value of the contract award is over $500,000. With this contract extension, Park Water's partnership with Central Basin to operate its 70-mile distribution system and deliver 5,000 acre-feet of recycled water annually will continue through 2017.

 

"Recycled water plays a pivotal role in augmenting imported water supplies in the Southeast Los Angeles County," said Central Basin Board President Robert Apodaca. "The partnership between Central Basin and Park Water is [a] demonstration of agencies working together to address the drought and provide alternative, reliable sources of water and will better position Central Basin to assess potential options for rebalancing and optimizing the Water Recycling Project and resulting benefits."

 

Park Water has operated Central Basin's Century water recycling system since its startup in 1992 and the Esteban Torres Rio Hondo Water Recycling System since 2014. The contract extension for the Century Project will result in greater operational effectiveness and synergies between the two recycled water systems and will support the District's efforts to streamline the establishment of an asset management program for its water recycling project.
