West Valley Feeder No. 2 Exposed Pipe Project

The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is initiating the West Valley Feeder No. 2 Exposed Pipe Project in Los Angeles, California. The project is located at Station 104+35 in Aliso Canyon Wash, near San Fernando Mission Boulevard and Chimineas Avenue, where scour has exposed the pipe encasement. The primary objective is to protect the pipe by covering the exposed encasement using 2,500 square feet of native soils excavated from the wash, ensuring no external soil is imported. Additional stabilization measures include the installation of approximately 1,200 square feet of geotextile underlayer and the placement of 150 cubic yards of quarter-ton class riprap downstream to prevent further erosion. This project is classified as a forecast with a posted date of July 24, 2025, and falls under NAICS code 237120. Due to the nature of the work as emergency repairs and minor alterations to existing facilities, the project qualifies for exemptions under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and the Public Resources Code. Administrative contact for the project is Liz Florence, Associate Environmental Specialist. No specific contract value, period of performance, or formal evaluation criteria have been disclosed in the available documentation.
