Sanderson Lift Wet Well Lid Replacement Project

The Eastern Municipal Water District is preparing to undertake the Sanderson Lift Wet Well Lid Replacement Project at the Sanderson Lift Station in San Jacinto, California, to address aging infrastructure and improve workplace safety. The project involves replacing ten wet well lids, including three large lids, two medium lids, two instrument hatches, and three lids at the pipe header, along with their associated I-beam angle brackets. Each new lid will be equipped with a spring-assisted lifting mechanism to reduce physical strain on staff and contractors during routine maintenance activities, enhancing ergonomic conditions and operational efficiency. The work is necessary because the existing equipment has reached or is nearing the end of its useful service life and requires modernization to ensure continued reliable system function. This initiative directly supports the safety and well-being of EMWD personnel while protecting ratepayer interests by preventing potential system failures and reducing long-term maintenance costs. The project is forecasted to be posted on June 10, 2026, with Martha Vilchis, Water Resources Specialist Assistant I, serving as the primary point of contact. The location of performance is clearly identified as San Jacinto, California, with a zip code of 92582, and all work will be conducted within the existing Sanderson Lift Station facility. No set-aside or NAICS code information is provided, and the solicitation number is not yet assigned, indicating the project is in the preliminary planning phase awaiting formal procurement initiation.
