Emerging Contaminants (Manganese) Compliance Project

The Emerging Contaminants (Manganese) Compliance Project is a planning initiative managed by the Knights Landing Community Services District in Yolo County, California. The primary objective is to evaluate groundwater quality, aquifer characteristics, sustainable yield, and overall suitability for future water supply development to support the District's compliance efforts regarding emerging contaminants. The project is classified as a forecast under NAICS code 237990 and is managed by General Manager Jose M. Quintana. The scope of work involves the installation of up to three pilot monitoring wells with flow rates not exceeding 250gpm on properties identified as potential sites for future production wells and treatment facilities. Key operational activities include site access preparation, minor grading for drilling access, excavation, well drilling and development, the installation of temporary testing equipment, soil stockpiling, and the subsequent restoration of all disturbed areas. This project is limited to preliminary environmental investigations for informational and planning purposes and is exempt under Public Resources Code section 21080.47, as it does not commit to future development or cause significant environmental impact.
