The recipient will complete the first phase of its city-wide integrated water resources strategy, city of LOS angeles hyperion 2035: phase 1 (PROJECT), which includes implementation of new infrastructure at the existing hyperion water reclamation plant to establish an advanced treatment capacity. The recipient currently imports 90 percent of its water from non-local sources that are subject to significant hydrologic variability, leaving the recipient vulnerable to drought and other effects of climate change. The PROJECT will reduce imported water use, increasing local water supplies, and diversifying the recipients water portfolio to enhance long-term reliability.his initiative seeks to revolutionize the recipients approach to water management by providing up to 243,232 acre-feet per year (AFY), accounting for approximately 45% of the recipient S water demand, from a new, local, and reliable water supply source. The overarching goal is to ensure the long-term reliability of local groundwater basins, enhance water supply resiliency, diversify the recipients water portfolio, and significantly reduce reliance on imported water sources. This agreement will fund the PROJECT, which is the initial phase of this comprehensive program, represents a monumental investment of $1.4 billion towards establishing critical infrastructure necessary to deliver 56,044 AFY (50 MGD) of indirect potable reuse (IPR) water to the west coast barrier, central basin, and new users.activities to be performed by their primary contractor carollo engineers, INC. And its subcontractors include technical studies, alternative analysis, feasibility study, facility master plan, concept design report, inter-agency coordination, environmental planning, and program and administration.
