The Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District board of directors has awarded a $217-million contract to Shimmick Construction Co. for the third phase of a project to expand treatment capabilities at its Regional Water Reclamation Facility in Lake Elsinore, Calif.
The expansion is planned to increase plant capacity from 8 million gallons per day to 12 million gallons per day to meet growing demand, according to the water district. General Manager Greg Thomas said in a statement that its service area in western Riverside County “is only 35% built out” and seeing increasing growth.
