TUD PROJECTS
PROJECT DESCRIPTION- Cuesta Heights Water Storage and Distribution Project
This project dismantles three (3) storage tanks (Gopher Tank, 420K Tank, and Saratoga Tank) which have reached the end of their design service life with a new 600,000 gallon water storage tank, rehabilitates the Pedro-Y tank, installs two new pump stations and provides distribution improvements. The TUD Board of Directors awarded the construction of the new water tank to Njirich & Sons, Inc. (Njirich) in May 2020. Crosno Construction, a tank manufacturer from Arroyo Grande and a subcontractor of Njirich & Sons, Inc., started construction of the Cuesta Heights Tank in August 2020 and completed the tank in December 2020. The final completion of this project improves fire flow and provides emergency water storage during the District’s annual ditch outage. The project scope has now changed; the Pedro-Y tank will be replaced instead of rehabilitated.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION –Sierra Pines Regional Water Treatment Facility
Tuolumne Utilities District is proposing to construct and operate the proposed Project on 46-acres near Twain Harte, California in unincorporated Tuolumne County. The first phase of the proposed Project involves construction and operation of a water treatment facility with an initial operational capacity of 3 million gallons per day (mgd). The proposed Project water treatment facilities include a new 30-acre-foot capacity raw water reservoir, a raw water pump station, filter building, sludge lagoons associated appurtenances and electrical structures, water conveyance pipelines, a stormwater detention basin, as well as new recreational trails and amenities. New water transmission pipelines would be installed offsite (within the franchise portion of roadways and other public rights of way) to convey treated water to existing TUD facilities.

Addendum 1 – Algerine Slum Dam Project Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) Ditch Maintenance Activities
Project Overview:
The Tuolumne Utilities District prepared a master initial study/mitigated negative declaration for system-wide ditch maintenance activities certified by the TUD Board of Directors on September 12, 2017 hereby incorporated by reference as follows and available online at
https://tudwater.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Final-Ditch-Maintenance-IS-MND-9-12-17-1.pdf
Algerine Slum Dam Project:
The Tuolumne Utilities District (TUD) receives raw water from the South Fork of the Stanislaus River via the PG&E Main Tuolumne Canal at points near Twain Harte and Phoenix Lake in Tuolumne County near Sonora California. The District operates about 70 miles of open ditch system delivering water from the Main Tuolumne Canal to 11 active water treatment plants spread throughout the TUD service area serving treated water to roughly 31,000 people and raw water to over 600 customers. One of these raw water conveyance structures is TUD’s Algerine Ditch that serves water to livestock ranches in the Wards Ferry ‐ Algerine Area. A slum dam diverts water from Curtis Creek into the Algerine Ditch and a small, private diversion (west bank), at a point located approximately 1,000 feet north of Old Wards Ferry Road. Water diverted by the Algerine ditch is first delivered to Curtis Creek upstream of this location via TUD’s Phoenix Ditch. The slum dam is a gold rush era structure that spans Curtis Creek, approximately 50 feet, and only functions to divert water; no water is impounded. The construction of the diversion is comprised of stacked rocks secured with mortar with a shotcrete overlay on most of the downstream and upstream dam facing surfaces.
Addendum 1 – Algerine Slum Dam Project (ISMND) – December 2019
CEQA Process:
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Tuolumne Utilities District will conduct a public hearing at 2:00 p.m., or as shortly thereafter as may be heard, on the 14th day of January 2020 at the TUD Board Room, 18885 Nugget Blvd Sonora, CA 95370 to consider the following:

Project Overview:
The proposed Sonora Regional Wastewater Treatment Facility Improvements Project will provide replacement of existing polishing ponds with a new activated sludge treatment facility consisting of the following: headworks primary screening and grit removal, new activated sludge/extended aeration secondary treatment processing, new secondary clarifiers, new chlorine disinfection facilities, renovated sludge digestion to aerated digestion, and new sludge dewatering facilities. A new administration and electrical building (Building A) will be constructed adjacent to the treatment facility. A new Building B will contain headworks and sludge dewatering systems. The existing digestion building will be a renovated Building C. Existing septage receiving station, headworks, primary clarifiers, trickling filters, and secondary clarifiers will be demolished as part of the project. The existing Emergency Storage Basin Pond A will be lined and reused in the proposed Project. The new facilities will be constructed in the location of the existing polishing ponds. The land area will be reclaimed by draining and filling the ponds with approximately 90,000 cubic yards of fill material to be generated onsite. Construction activities will include grading, site preparation, excavation, concrete placement, and mechanical and electrical equipment installation. The proposed Project construction is anticipated to take place in 2021 and 2022.
CEQA Process:
The District is seeking public comments on the environmental document for the proposed Project from local and state agencies, and interested organizations/persons. Written comments are preferred. The Initial Study/ Mitigated Negative Declaration (ISMND) discloses that, with the incorporation of mitigation, no significant environmental impacts are anticipated with the proposed Project. Comments received will be duly considered by the District prior to adoption of the document. The ISMND for the Project is available for review at the Tuolumne Utilities District office located at 18885 Nugget Boulevard, Sonora, CA 95370 and the Tuolumne County Clerk Office at 2 S. Green Street, Second Floor, Sonora, CA 95370.
The District requests written comments be submitted as soon as possible to ensure each comment is addressed adequately. The public review period begins December 3, 2019 and ends January 3, 2020. Written comments should be sent directly to the Tuolumne Utilities District, Erik D. Johnson, 18885 Nugget Boulevard, Sonora, CA 95370 or via email at ejohnson@tudwater.com.
