Project Name: Nipomo Waterline Inter-tie Project, Nipomo, California Services: Biological and Environmental Permitting Client: Nipomo Community Services District
Padre assisted AECOM and the Nipomo Community Services District (NCSD) with permitting and biological services on the proposed NCSD Waterline Inter-tie project in Nipomo, California. The proposed project would include a pipeline to deliver up to 6,200 acre-feet per year of water from the City of Santa Maria to the NCSD’s customers. The project will include a directionally drilled segment of pipeline to cross beneath the Santa Maria River. Padre prepared a biological survey of the proposed pipeline alignment in support of the Environmental Impact Report preparation task of the project. Currently, Padre is acquiring agency permits for the construction of the proposed pipeline. Several regulatory agencies are involved in the permitting phase of the project, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, California Department of Fish and Game, the San Luis Obispo County Air Pollution Control District, and the City of Santa Maria.
