EBMUD recently replaced the old Summit Reservoir and Shasta-Woods Pumping Plant located on the Berkeley/ Kensington border. Construction included replacing the old 37 million gallon, open-cut Summit Reservoir with a smaller 3.5 million gallon concrete water tank to improve water quality, meet current water demands and enhance our operations. The Shasta-Woods Pumping Plant was also replaced as part of this project and landscaping, a new perimeter path on Grizzly Peak and a new perimeter fencing were also added.
Workplan and schedule
Though all construction is now complete, you will see EBMUD staff onsite intermittently. We thank you for your patience as we worked to complete this complex and needed project.
