Kokila Reservoir Replacement Project

The Kokila Reservoir Replacement Project, led by the San Juan Water District and funded by the State Water Resources Control Board, involves replacing an existing 4.56 million-gallon reservoir with a partially buried 4.0 million-gallon concrete water reservoir. The project will be constructed within approximately the same footprint as the existing facility at Sierra College Blvd and Ridge Park Drive in Placer County, California. The scope includes the replacement or reconstruction of existing utility systems and facilities, resulting in negligible expansion of capacity or use and only minor alterations to the land. Classified under NAICS code 237110, the project is identified by State Clearinghouse Number 2022040122 and was granted a Notice of Exemption from the California Environmental Quality Act under categorical exemptions Class 1, 2, and 4. Financing was approved by the State Water Board on August 22, 2025. Key administrative contacts include Andrew Pierson, Director of Engineering Services for the San Juan Water District, and Robyn Mendoza, Environmental Scientist for the State Water Board. Project records are available to the public at the State Water Board Division of Financial Assistance in Sacramento.
