The Calera Creek Water Recycling Plan was designed in 1991 and became operational in 2000. The Plant is designed to treat an average daily dry weather design flow of 4 million gallons per day (MGD) and a peak hourly wet weather discharge capacity of 20 MGD to Calera Creek.
It employs an innovative sequencing batch reactor that combines the basins for aeration and clarification, which are separate basins at conventional wastewater treatment plants. Moreover, the Plant was one of the first fully automated plants in the San Francisco Bay Area designed for nutrient removal and helped pioneer the use of ultraviolet disinfection for wastewater effluent in California. Furthermore, it was also one of the first plants using ATAD technology (autothermal thermophilic aerobic diges for the generation of Class A sludge in California. up your brand.

Both the Collection System and the Plant are supported by rate payer revenue. Due to the age of the Plant and Collection System infrastructure (which is exposed to a harsh coastal environment), stringent regulatory requirements and vendor phase-out of parts, the City needs to incur costs to replace and maintain its sewer treatment infrastructure. Therefore, sewer rate increases are proposed to provide adequate funding for capital replacement and to address costs related to consumer price index (CPI) increases and operation needs. The Proposed Rates The proposed rate revisions and the calculation methodology that supports the rates are set forth in a wastewater rate study conducted by BWA (Attachment 2). A rate increase of 3.5%/year is proposed to cover Wastewater operations, maintenance, capital projects, consumer price index (CPI) increases and debt service. Rates are projected for a 10-year period for forecasting purposes from FY2022/23 to FY2031/32; however, the rate increase approval is for a 5-year period from FY2022/23 to FY2026/27 (Attachment 3) this space to add more details about your site, a customer quote, or to talk about important news. this space to add more details about your site, a customer quote, or to talk about important news.
