Summary
Staff said the Carter Hill prestressed concrete tank project is approaching completion and was designated 'project of the year' by an industry reviewer; year‑to‑date CIP spending was reported at about $11.39 million with roughly $8.4 million on the Carter Hill project.
Pacifica staff reported that the Carter Hill prestressed concrete tank project is in its final months and has been designated as an industry "project of the year" out of roughly 80 U.S. tank projects, a recognition staff said they received via email.
Mary summarized recent construction milestones: the 24‑inch outlet pipe has been connected to the distribution system, the tank is being backfilled and waterproofed, site electrical and drainage work is underway, and the tanks are starting to fill. She said staff is preparing a public celebration tied to project completion and signage for outreach.
Financially, staff reported $11,387,000 spent year to date on CIP; of that total, approximately $8,400,000 was attributed to the Carter Hill project. Directors praised staff and on-site leaders for the project management and suggested highlighting the award and the project in outreach materials at the planned celebration.
Staff also confirmed state approval to use the tank and said the site team is maintaining stormwater controls and site grading.
Next steps: staff will finish remaining system tie‑ins, maintain vigilance over stormwater and site drainage, and prepare materials for the project celebration expected later in the summer.
