The JRWSS system also includes two water storage facilities in San Clemente; collectively, these facilities comprise the JRWSS and are contract-operated by South Coast Water District; and WHEREAS, the Crown Valley Parkway Transmission Main Relocation Project constructed approximately 2,500 lineal feet of 36-inch cement mortar lined and coated (CML&C) steel water transmission pipe in Crown Valley Parkway, new corrosion protection improvements, and abandoned the 36-inch and 39-inch pipes originally constructed in 1961. The contractor filled the abandoned pipe with lightweight cellular concrete and installed caps on the open ends of the pipe for permanent abandonment; and WHEREAS, construction was completed on July 2, 2025, with a Notice of Completion recorded at the County of Orange on August 18, 2025. In its capacity as the Designated Operator on behalf of the JRWSS, the SCWD Board of Directors at their Regular Meeting on August 14, 2025, by 5-0 vote, authorized the General Manager to execute the filing of a Notice of Completion and Release of Retention Fund for the JRWSS Crown Valley Parkway Transmission Main Relocation Project; and WHEREAS, the Joint Transmission Main (JTM) was originally constructed in a 25-foot-wide Easement granted by the Laguna Niguel Corporation and recorded on June 7, 1961 (Instrument No. OR5746-657, Book 5746, Page 657, of the Official Records of the County of Orange).
