District reports progress on sewer repairs and says it remains on track to meet Lahontan CDO
Summary
LACSD presented its annual Cease-and-Desist Order report, describing completed projects (manhole rehabilitation, sliplining, Highland sewer replacement, dam vault upsizing) and stated that collection-system flows did not exceed the CDO daily allowance during the 2023–24 year.
Field Operations Manager Nathan Porter presented the District's annual report under Cease-and-Desist Order R6V-2013-0022 to the Board and noted the report was submitted to the Lahontan Regional Water Quality Control Board on time.
Porter reviewed completed and recent projects intended to reduce inflow and infiltration and improve collection-system reliability: Manhole Rehabilitation (completed Nov. 2023); North Bay Sliplining Phase 2 (Nov. 2023) with associated manhole rehabilitation; Highland Sewer Replacement (1,640 linear feet of failing concrete pipe replaced and 15 new manholes installed); and the Dam Vault Upsize Project, which improved flow to the treatment plant. Porter emphasized that although 2023–24 precipitation was about 14 inches above normal, system flows never exceeded the CDO daily allowances and staff remains confident of meeting the 2026 standard.
Board members asked questions during the presentation but took no separate action beyond receipt of the annual report. The minutes do not include a project-by-project cost breakdown or a schedule for remaining work; readers seeking full technical details should consult the filed CDO annual report submitted to the Lahontan Board.
