Background
LADWP, in partnership with LA Sanitation and Environment (LASAN), is developing the Los Angeles Groundwater Replenishment Project (LAGWR). LAGWR will provide up to 40,000 acre-feet per year (AFY) of purified water to replenish the San Fernando Groundwater Basin using proven, state-of-the-art technology that is highly protective of human health. LAGWR is an important investment in developing a local, drought resilient, and reliable water supply for a sustainable Los Angeles.
LAGWR includes the construction of an Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF) at the Donald C. Tillman Water Reclamation Plant (Tillman). This new facility adds advanced treatment – that meets the highest regulatory standards – to the existing, multistep treatment process at Tillman. Up to 40,000 acre-feet per year of purified water will be delivered through an existing pipeline to the Hansen Spreading Grounds (HSG). Following spreading at HSG, the purified water will infiltrate into the San Fernando Groundwater Basin where it will remain for several years, adding to L.A.’s future drinking water supply.
Additional electrical power is required to supply the new AWPF and increased operations at Tillman for LAGWR. In order to preserve the reliability of the LADWP electrical distribution system during peak demand periods, a new electrical connection is required for Tillman. The Victory Electrical Conduit project will route and house the new electrical connections supplying project facilities.
Project Description
The Victory Electrical Conduit project will install approximately two miles of underground electrical conduits and vaults spanning from 15790 Victory Blvd to 6357 Van Nuys Blvd. Approximately 16 electrical conduits will be installed in the public right of way on Victory Blvd, Van Nuys Blvd, and miscellaneous side streets. The project is contained within a designated “Street of Significance”, so the project team is coordinating with City and County agencies to minimize impacts to traffic and other projects within the corridor.
Project Duration
Winter 2027 to Winter 2028
Construction Work Hours
Monday – Friday, 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Some night work will be conducted from 9:00 PM to 5:00 AM.
