The Regional Groundwater
Storage and Recovery (GSR) project has nearly completed its work at the Garden
Chapel Funeral Home site along El Camino Real. We have drilled a new
approximately 620-foot well, built a new well station, and installed 850 feet
of pipeline to connect this with the water transmission system. We removed the
trees along the pipeline alignment along El Camino Real between Southwood Drive
and Orange Avenue for this project.
After discussions with
the City of South San Francisco, the SFPUC has planted 15 Coast Live Oak trees
along El Camino Real in a way as to not interfere with the pipes in the ground.
The team has also planted groundcover in this area and replaced the fence of the
Baden Valve Lot with a new black vinyl-coated fence.
Additional Project
Construction
As the project moves
forward into Phase 2 we will work on locating up to three additional well sites
in Northern San Mateo County. This may require that the team access the
pipeline that runs adjacent along El Camino Real between Southwood Drive and Orange
Avenue. The additional work may disturb the groundcover, which the SFPUC will
restore after the pipeline work is complete. There will be no impact to the
newly replanted trees.
