Ken-Mar Gardens, Halcyon Water System, Halcyon Estates, and Grande Mobile Manor Consolidation Project

The Ken-Mar Gardens, Halcyon Water System, Halcyon Estates, and Grande Mobile Manor Consolidation Project is a forecast initiative by the Oceano Community Services District in San Luis Obispo County, California. The project aims to resolve potable water quality violations and bring four specific water systems into compliance by consolidating them into the OCSD system. The scope of work includes the installation of new pipeline main sections, replacing existing pipes with upsized versions, creating pipeline loops by extending dead-end lines, and installing an emergency intertie with the City of Arroyo Grande's system. Technical execution will involve open cut trenching, jack-and-bore methods, and the installation of control valves, meters, and fire hydrants. Construction for the proposed modifications is expected to begin as early as summer 2027 with an estimated duration of 12 months. Work will be performed during standard daytime hours, typically between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m., with no nighttime construction permitted. The project is subject to strict environmental and regulatory compliance, including CEQA requirements, NPDES water quality permits, and County of San Luis Obispo encroachment permits. Additionally, the contractor must adhere to biological resource protections for nesting birds and special-status species, as well as California Public Resources Code mandates regarding spark arrestors and fire suppression equipment during high-fire-danger periods.
