Driscoll Well and Pump Station Project

The Aromas Water District is proposing the Driscoll Well and Pump Station Project to enhance the reliability and resilience of its potable water supply system by constructing a new municipal water well, pump station, water treatment system, and solar photovoltaic system on the southern portion of a designated site. The project includes an approximately 730-foot-long underground 8-inch water pipeline that runs beneath the Union Pacific Railroad tracks within the Carpenteria Road right-of-way to connect with the District’s existing distribution system on Marshall Lane. The northern portion of the site will remain fenced and undeveloped. The primary objective is to supplement current water production capacity and provide operational redundancy without expanding service to new users or supporting future growth. The integration of solar power aims to reduce reliance on the electrical grid and lower long-term operational costs. The well is designed to improve drought resilience by supplying additional sources of potable water during periods of stress on existing infrastructure. All components are engineered to support the District’s existing demand profile and ensure continuous service to current customers. The project is anticipated to be managed under the oversight of the Aromas Water District in California, with primary contact information provided through Robert Johnson, General Manager, and Kate Elliot, Project Director. The forecasted posting date for this initiative is May 29, 2026, and the expected place of performance is within zip code 95004. No set-aside or NAICS code has been indicated, and the project is currently listed as a forecast with no formal solicitation number.
