On Tuesday, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors directed county staff to negotiate a contract of up to $25,000 with environmental consulting firm Larry Walker Associates to help county agencies organize grant proposals for water projects.
The Fort Bragg City Council downgraded the city’s water emergency from a Stage 4 water crisis to a Stage 2 water alert because the city’s 22.6 million gallon reservoir is at capacity and the desalination unit is now operational.
A $335,000 desalination plant arrived in Fort Bragg on Sept. 25, but no longer needs to be used right away thanks to the arrival of much-needed rain. The plant is intended to treat water from the Noyo River, which becomes too brackish for the city to pump for drinking water when the river is experiencing low flows and high tides.
The California Department of Water Resources announced last Wednesday that the city of Ukiah and Mendocino County would receive $264,600 and $2 million, respectively, for projects intended to help get water to neighboring communities.
