San Gabriel Valley Water Company - Plant B-6; 1,4 Dioxane and N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) Ultra Violent Light (UV) Flex Modular Demonstration Project

The City of Baldwin Park is advancing a demonstration project to evaluate an advanced UVFlex modular treatment system at the San Gabriel Valley Water Company’s Plant B-6 facility in Baldwin Park, California, aimed at removing the contaminants 1,4 dioxane and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) from drinking water. This initiative leverages existing infrastructure at the plant to deploy a cutting-edge ultraviolet-based technology designed to address these persistent and hazardous groundwater pollutants, which are increasingly regulated due to their potential health risks. The project is positioned as a pilot to demonstrate the efficacy, scalability, and operational viability of the UVFlex modular system under real-world conditions within California’s water treatment landscape. Primary oversight and technical coordination are managed by Bill Liang, District Engineer at the California State Water Resources Control Board, who serves as the point of contact for regulatory and engineering matters, while Hai-Van Nguyen, Water Quality Superintendent for San Gabriel Valley Water Company, provides on-site operational expertise and facility support. The demonstration is scheduled to take place at the plant located in Baldwin Park with a ZIP code of 91706, focusing on real-time performance monitoring, data collection, and compliance verification against emerging state and federal water quality standards. Though the solicitation is classified as a forecast and lacks formal procurement details, the project signals a proactive effort toward adopting innovative treatment technologies to ensure safe, compliant drinking water for the region.
