OMWD to hold virtual neighborhood meeting June 11 about pipeline project

The public is invited to attend a virtual public meeting via Zoom on June 11 at 4 p.m. to learn about the potable water pipeline project that Olivenhain Municipal Water District will begin in fall 2020 at the intersection of Rancho Santa Fe Road and Encinitas Blvd.

OMWD is committed to providing its customers with safe, reliable, and high-quality drinking water. This is why OMWD takes a proactive approach in repairing and replacing aging water infrastructure. These proactive measures decrease water loss, save money, and reduce customer impacts from line breaks and emergency shutdowns.

Pipelines near the intersection of Rancho Santa Fe Road and Encinitas Boulevard are approaching the end of their lifespan. Beginning this fall and over an anticipated nine-month construction period, OMWD will replace and relocate several pipelines within the construction area.

Through Zoom, OMWD staff will provide project details, the anticipated construction schedule, and steps that will be taken to reduce impacts to the community. The public is also invited to ask questions regarding the project and its impacts.
