Carpinteria Advanced Purification Project

The Carpinteria Advanced Purification Project involves the construction and operation of an Advanced Water Purification Facility at the Carpinteria Sanitary District’s wastewater treatment site, along with a new pipeline network to transport treated water through public rights-of-way, two groundwater injection wells to replenish the Carpinteria Valley Groundwater Basin, and a cluster of monitoring wells to track water quality. The project is located in Carpinteria, California, with all work performed at the designated facility and surrounding infrastructure sites. Environmental compliance is governed under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), which has been satisfied through the issuance of a Negative Declaration with no mitigation measures or overriding considerations required. The project is led by the Carpinteria Valley Water District as the applicant, with oversight from the City of Carpinteria as the lead agency under CEQA. Contractual details are not fully defined under federal acquisition standards, as no FAR clauses, evaluation factors, payment terms, invoicing methods, or financial figures are provided. There is no listed contract value, no specified period of performance, and no formal assignment of contracting officer or technical representative roles. The solicitation was posted on September 8, 2025, with a submission deadline of September 3, 2025, and proposals were to be submitted to the City of Carpinteria at 5775 Carpinteria Avenue. No unique entity identifiers, socioeconomic certifications, or standard federal representations were required or included. The only formal requirements pertain to land use approvals, including the Coastal Development Permit and Conditional Use Permit, which are prerequisites for construction. All project elements are designed to support sustainable groundwater replenishment and water reuse for future extraction by the Carpinteria Valley Water District, aligning with regional water resource goals without the formal structure of a federally regulated procurement contract.
