Approve River Meadows Water Distribution System to add additional Residential Use and to Set System Limits

The Monterey Peninsula Water Management District is overseeing a project to modify the River Meadows Water Distribution System located at 8640 River Meadows Road in Monterey, California. The project, carried out by Rio Carmelo, LLC, involves adding a second residential connection to a pre-existing well system within the Carmel Valley Alluvial Aquifer that has historically provided potable and irrigation water to a single-family dwelling. Key technical specifications include increasing the Expansion Capacity Limit to two residential connections and establishing a Production Limit of 5.775 Acre-Feet Annually. This action is supported by a Notice of Exemption based on regulatory compliance with environmental protection actions and state water and utility commission orders. The project is categorized under NAICS code 221310 and is managed by the agency's Water Demand Analyst.
