Project Description
This grant (applied for before the Camp Fire) was awarded in September 2022, for a new generator at the WTP, plus pipeline and pump station upgrades for Zone A. The upgrades provide for redundancy in bringing water to town from the treatment plant. This is also known as the ZAPS Project.

PID's board considered these alternatives:
The Board discussed several alternative locations for the redundant pipeline during the grant application phase. Ultimately, it was decided the best route for the pipeline was to follow Skyway.
