Work is now underway on several of the projects, with a number of others in the planning stages.
This work has been completed. These pipes will permit direct access to the salt water in the Bay for fire apparatus. A permanent salt water system, the backbone of the new auxiliary water supply system. The underground pipes and pump stations will provide a reliable water supply for fire fighting in the area most likely to be without water after an earthquake, the area from the Bay to Shattuck Avenue, including the Downtown. The construction of an alternate Emergency Operations Center at Eighth and Cedar, adjacent to the fire station.
