The Livermore Valley Groundwater Basin plays a critical role in providing reliable water for the area, especially during droughts. Investments in PFAS treatment infrastructure will ensure that the basin remains a safe and sustainable source of water, further ensuring long-term water reliability for the Tri-Valley.

“As California faces increasing water challenges, expanding our groundwater treatment infrastructure is a critical step in ensuring long-term reliability for the residents of the Tri-Valley,” said Zone 7 Water Agency General Manager Valerie Pryor. “These investments allow us to treat groundwater using state-of-the-art ion exchange treatment, providing families and businesses with a more secure and sustainable water supply when imported State Water Project water is unavailable, as is typical in periods of drought. Our commitment to proactive groundwater management means we are always looking ahead to protect this vital, local resource for our community.”
