Villa Reservoir Management System (RMS) and Safety Upgrades, C-1567A.01

The Santa Margarita Water District is undertaking safety and operational upgrades to the Villa Reservoir Management System at 32041 Via Pavo Real, Coto de Caza, California, under project code C-1567A.01. The scope includes replacing roof access hatches, installing new hatches for RMS mixers and chlorine dosing systems, adding or replacing roof vents, upgrading ladders and roof fall restraint systems, installing electrical power and controls for chlorine dosing, and constructing a new chemical storage facility. Paint touch-up work is required and must be performed with full containment to prevent environmental contamination. The project relies on a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Class 1 categorical exemption for existing facilities, indicating it involves maintenance and repair rather than new construction, and has been formally determined eligible for this exemption with a Notice of Exemption filed on April 22, 2024. All work is to be completed at the reservoir site, with inspection and acceptance conducted by the district as the lead agency. No contract value, funding codes, payment terms, or federal procurement data such as FAR clauses, UEI, CAGE codes, or socioeconomic certifications are identified in the available records. The project was posted as a forecast on January 21, 2026, with Tricia Butler, Chief Engineer, listed as the primary point of contact. No formal contract number, delivery schedule, pricing, or detailed technical specifications beyond environmental compliance are provided, and all documentation centers on administrative environmental approvals rather than binding contractual terms or commercial requirements.
