Director Memorandum No. 16-040 Page 3 of 24
Ultimately, the Yucaipa Valley Water District will need about 1.6 million gallons per day of both
brineline pipeline and brine treatment/disposal capacity for use by our customers in the City of
Yucaipa and the City of Calimesa.
The Yucaipa Valley Water District has been working with the San Bernardino Valley Municipal
Water District for the purchase of an additional 500,000 gallons per day of brineline pipeline
capacity and 300,000 of brine treatment and disposal capacity. This purchase is expected to
complete the brineline pipeline capacity needs of the Yucaipa Valley Water District. However, as
treatment technology changes the Board of Directors might find that it is more economical to
purchase additional capacity rather than reduce the volume of brine by concentrating the
discharge.
