2015 URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN <br />The schedule for this project includes start -up and operation of up to a 5 MGD (5,600 AFY) facility by the <br />end of 2019. SCWD anticipates leaving the option open for other agencies to participate in a larger, 15 <br />MGD facility, with subsequent permitting and construction of additional slant wells and treatment capacity. <br />Camp Pendleton Seawater Desalination Project — San Diego County Water Authority ( SDCWA) is <br />studying a desalination project to be located at the southwest corner of Camp Pendleton Marine Corps <br />Base adjacent to the Santa Margarita River. The initial project would be a 50 (56,000 AFY) or 100 <br />(112,100) MGD plant with expansions in 50 MGD increments to a maximum capacity of 150 MGD <br />(168,100 AFY), making this the largest proposed desalination plant in the US. <br />The project is currently in the feasibility study stage and SDCWA is conducting geological surveys, <br />analyzing intake options, and studying the effect on ocean life and routes to bring desalinated water to <br />SDCWA's delivery system. MWDOC and south Orange County agencies are maintaining an interest in <br />the project. <br />75E -87 <br />arcadis.com 7 -4 <br />
