Engineering staff announced a milestone for regional water treatment: the Westlake Tahoe Regional Water Treatment Plant received a conditional operating permit from the Division of Drinking Water last week and entered production this week.
Sal, an engineering staff member involved in the project, said the plant was placed into production on Tuesday and has been delivering water to the McKinney Quail water system while filling the distribution tank. He described startup as "quiet" and "uneventful" and credited a long team effort dating back to 2003 for the project’s realization.
Committee members congratulated the team and asked a few follow‑up questions; staff said they would answer any additional questions about capital projects and continue reporting progress at committee and board meetings.
