Water Improvement Design and Coordination. Our utility design team along with.oursuboirsUltant, Hazen and <br />Sowyet have Successfully, 0mpleted Water Infrastructure. projects for varlow igorrolas In. Southern California, These <br />projects consist of Water main replacement, realignment, upilzing arid copsolty increase, master planning, existing <br />system evaluation god and openfllorvil Support. Although each project Is urilque, the majority of challenging <br />utility projects. we face are In developed areas where existing utility facilities ore located, WlJhIn thopropoSed project Area <br />and any Imprwomont will generally effort or he Mratated.by the livoarflon.of uqlfty fpcilily, KirriaMorrit0loves <br />In r1rowIng all VVIlty lines and features true to size In our plans to aid In Identifying conflicts early In tho design phase. We <br />Will also pothole potential conflict locations when budgets allow, whichgIves a better understanding of the locations of <br />the existing lines, and provide extensive coordination With the various utility 00m0ables.

The III rst is a regional <br />decline In Water elevations that shift the �startic"wator level downward. The Second Is a decline In Water levels In the <br />local aquifer caused by continuous pumping, The third Is a decline In specific oapaofty oaused by a plugged filter pack <br />or wall screen. The roglonal.dodne in water levels is not controllable and groundwater levels Will recover through <br />natural recharge, The reduction In speciflorspacIty requires cQrrective action In the form of root cause evoluation, well <br />redevelopment, and possibly modification to pump location and flow rate. <br />The decline In spoolflo capacity could be assault of a reduction of pormqabl[Jty near the well screen. This type of <br />permeability reduction Is often the result of b1ologloal foullng, cernoritaition, or the Intrusion of fine-grained aquifer send <br />Into 11hogravel park surrounding the wall casIng. Well videos could confirm this, Migration of fine-grained aq ulfervand <br />could be a root cause of the rapid decline In specific capacity The result of this Is that water volooftyclurIng pumping Is <br />much %horin those sections of screen thatprodubothe most water, During pumping, small send particles mobilize -and <br />migrate through thewell fillarpack and wedge Intothe pore space. reducing permeability In the flier pack. <br />MlWmtlon of this Issue would Include careful wall development to remove the send and resettle thellifterpack and <br />modification of pumping operations to reduce.sharp changes In water velocity that mobilize fine-grained aclulforsand. <br />PrIorto redevelopment It Is.recommonded to review of the factors that can cause this reductlon In specific rapacity., <br />The review Would Include assessment of biological and cementation plugging and review the original, well construction <br />documents Including the Sieve analysis performed to size the Nor pack and the dally construction (if available), As part of <br />developing a mItIgpt1on approach, spinner logs may be recommended to verify production zones. <br />Environmental Studios. Our environmental services team provides complete natural resource regulatory compliance <br />services for public works projects. Our environmental professionals have provided services for a wide variety of projects, <br />including roadway, transit, transportation planning, green streets, complete streets, land development, storm drata, <br />and water resources. They are well versed In all aspects of the development process from Phase I Environirrental <br />Site Assessments to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) <br />KimlepMorn a TROG77025171 City or Santa Ana <br />25E-98 <br />
