Emerging Contaminants (Manganese) Compliance Project

The Knights Landing Community Services District is preparing to advance its Emerging Contaminants Compliance Project by installing up to three pilot monitoring wells on potential sites for future groundwater production and treatment facilities. These wells, with a maximum flow rate of 250 gallons per minute, will assess groundwater quality, aquifer characteristics, and sustainable yield to determine suitability for long-term water supply development, particularly in response to manganese compliance requirements. Activities include site preparation, minimal grading for safe drilling access, excavation, well drilling and development, installation of temporary testing equipment, soil stockpiling during operations, and full restoration of disturbed areas after completion. The project is designed to gather critical hydrogeological data to inform the district’s future infrastructure planning and regulatory compliance efforts. The initiative is managed by the California-based district, with primary contact information provided through General Manager Jose M. Quintana, reachable via email and phone. Although no solicitation number or NAICS code is specified, the project was posted on June 29, 2026, as a forecast, indicating preparatory planning for future procurement. All work will take place within California, with exact locations pending site evaluations. The scope focuses on minimal environmental disturbance and thorough restoration, ensuring that temporary impacts are carefully managed and reversed upon completion of monitoring activities.
