San Antonio Well Above Ground Facilities

The San Antonio Well Above Ground Facilities Upgrade is a rehabilitation and infrastructure project managed by the Goleta Water District in Santa Barbara County, California. The primary objective is to upgrade the San Antonio Well, one of the district's highest-producing wells with a capacity of up to 730 gallons per minute, to ensure operational reliability and sustained water treatment capacity during droughts or water quality fluctuations. The scope of work includes replacing the backwash tank and lift station, upgrading the filtration system, upsizing chemical storage, and performing necessary repairs to electrical, structural, and drainage systems. The project is located in Goleta and is categorized as categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15302 because the improvements occur on a developed site and do not expand the capacity of the electrical systems, backwash tank, or lift station. Administrative documentation includes a Notice of Exemption filing fee receipt from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, confirming the project's exempt status. While the specific contract value and pricing schedules are not provided in the available forecast data, the project is overseen by Daniel Brooks, the Engineering and Infrastructure Manager for the Goleta Water District.
