TranslateConstruction Update
The emergency generators at the District’s San Geronimo Treatment Plant are in place, and fully functional. The project, which included grading, drainage, concrete slab work and a retaining wall, ensures that the treatment plant can treat and deliver water during PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoffs and other unforeseen power outages.
Completed in the spring of 2023, the San Geronimo Treatment Plant Emergency Generator Project is part of the District’s broader effort to create resilient water treatment and delivery systems for our customers.
