New equalization basins will regulate flows to advanced water purification facility

Enhances capability to reduce imported water use in drought-stressed region of Los Angeles

DALLAS, Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacobs (NYSE: J) has been selected by LA Sanitation and Environment (LASAN) as the progressive design-build contractor for the Donald C. Tillman Advanced Water Equalization Basins, another critical part of the City of Los Angeles' long-term plans to increase recycled water production by 2035.

The Donald C. Tillman Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF), also being delivered by Jacobs, will depend on a constant, stable flow of primary effluent to produce purified water suitable for reuse through groundwater replenishment. The equalization basins, which can hold up to nine and a half million gallons of water, will regulate variable flows to the AWPF and support the optimal function of the facility's advanced water treatment processes – as part of the Los Angeles Groundwater Replenishment (GWR) Project.

"Managing limited water resources is a critical focus for California communities and for Jacobs," said Jacobs Vice President of Design-Build, Operations Management and Facilities Services Greg Fischer. "Our work with LASAN and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power on the Groundwater Replenishment Project will help to provide a sustainable and resilient local drinking water supply for Angelinos."

Jacobs will deliver the advanced water equalization basins project under a progressive design-build contract, with responsibility for design, permitting, construction, start-up and commissioning, supported by Kiewit as its lead contracting partner. Jacobs is currently supporting design-build contracts estimated at up to $740 million at the Donald C. Tillman site as part of the GWR project – which includes the state-of-the-art AWPF, an educational learning center, electrical upgrades, and the primary equalization tanks.
