Cambria Substainable Water Facility Project

The Cambria Sustainable Water Facility Project, managed by the Cambria Community Services District in California, is a forecast initiative focused on the development of a Water Reclamation Facility. The primary objectives of the project are to protect groundwater quality, mitigate seawater intrusion, and enhance the protection of creek and lagoon resources to ensure continued water availability for existing users and commitments. The project is categorized under NAICS code 237110 for heavy and civil engineering construction. The project reached a critical regulatory milestone on September 9, 2026, when the California Coastal Commission denied all appeals, rendering the approved Coastal Development Permit final and effective. A Notice of Determination was subsequently filed by the County of San Luis Obispo, certifying environmental determinations under the California Environmental Quality Act. The project is located in Cambria, California, and is overseen by General Manager Matthew Marshall McElhenie and Senior Planner Jeremy Freund.
