Coleville High School Water Project: Eliminating Uranium Contamination with Advanced Solutions

In the early 2000s, the wells at Coleville School site were found to exceed California's MCL for uranium. None of the attempted solutions met regulations. The project involved engineers, architects, and various reports to navigate the complex processes for state approvals and funding. The final result included electrical systems, ion exchange units, delivery pumps, and storage tanks to provide fresh, uranium-free water at Coleville High School.

  1. Coleville High SchoolWater Project

  2. The Problem • In the early 2000’s it was determined that the wells at the Coleville School site exceed California’s MCL for uranium.

  3. Solutions ? • Since that time various attempts were made to mitigate the problem. Point of use, bottled water etc. None of these partial solutions would satisfy the California Department of Public Health regulations. • No one at the District to pursue the correct course of action

  4. The Maze to a Solution • Engineers • Architects • Technical Report • Geo Technical Report • CEQA • State Approvals (CDPH, DSA) • Meetings, Meetings and more Meetings • Grants (writing, contracts, invoice, inspections) • Bids • Labor Compliance • Contractors • Lots of Advil
