Sanderson Lift Wet Well Lid Replacement Project

The Sanderson Lift Wet Well Lid Replacement Project, managed by the Eastern Municipal Water District, involves the repair and maintenance of the Sanderson Lift Station located at 198 Sanderson Ave in San Jacinto, California. The primary objective is to replace equipment that has reached the end of its useful service life and to implement ergonomic improvements for the safety of staff and contractors. The project is classified as a minor alteration of an existing public facility with no expansion of use, making it categorically exempt under section 15301. The scope of work includes the replacement of ten wet well lids, specifically three large vault lids, two medium vault lids, two instrument hatches, and three lids at the pipe header. To ensure system functionality and reduce physical strain during operation, the project also requires the installation of spring assisted lifting mechanisms and the replacement of I-beam angle brackets. Administrative coordination for the project is handled by the Eastern Municipal Water District, with primary points of contact including Martha Vilchis and Joe Broadhead.
