Security and Access Control Project

The Central Coast Water Authority is preparing to implement a Security and Access Control Project at its Polonia Pass Water Treatment Plant in California to strengthen operational resilience and physical security. The project involves replacing outdated surveillance cameras and upgrading existing door hardware to enhance the access control system, ensuring more secure and controlled entry to critical chemical storage areas. Accompanying infrastructure improvements may include trenching for underground conduits and the installation of new poles to support the placement of updated security cameras. These measures are driven by findings from a Risk and Resiliency Assessment that identified vulnerabilities requiring immediate attention to protect the integrity of water treatment operations and safeguard public utilities. The project is forecasted for release in May 2026, with primary coordination handled by Peter Thompson, Executive Director, and inquiries can be directed to the provided contact information.
