Citrus Heights Water District Project 2030 Water Main Replacement

Project 2030 is a Water Main Replacement Study for the Citrus Heights Water District (CHWD). CHWD is considering several water main replacements as part of its 30-year Capital Improvement Plan, especially those installed in the 1960s.

The District tapped Harris to provide support for the study, including leadership of multiple subconsultants. Harris is guiding CHWD’s Customer Advisory Committee though workshops and will assist the committee in key decision-making and policy recommendations to the Board.

Harris is also guiding technical subconsultants in the evaluation and prioritization of water main replacement options.

• Asset inventory and project polygon development
