Riverside County Sheriff (RSO) Southwest Station Emergency Sewer Flood Project

The Riverside County Sheriff (RSO) Southwest Station Emergency Sewer Flood Project, identified by project number FM03250015054, involves emergency remediation and restoration efforts at the facility located at 30755-A Auld Road in Murrieta, California. The project was initiated following a sewer backup on October 28, 2025, where a blockage in a lobby restroom floor drain caused flooding in the administrative office space. The primary objective is to repair the damage and restore the area to a compliant and safe facility without altering the existing footprint or expanding the current use of the building. Due to the imminent health and safety hazards and the potential loss of county services, the Facilities Management Maintenance Services Division issued an emergency declaration under Resolution No. 2003-23. This authorization allows the county to procure contracts for emergency work without competitive bidding. The project is exempt from further environmental analysis under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Sections 15269, 15301, and 15061(b)(3), as the work is limited to existing facilities and is not expected to result in any direct or indirect physical environmental impacts. Mike Sullivan, the Facilities Operations Manager, serves as the primary point of contact for this effort.
