Public Updates

At its September 21, 2026 meeting staff reported that LADWP committed to support field adjustments until the Dominguez Gap Barrier valve can be retrofitted with an electronic pilot. The District said the retrofit would allow remote dynamic adjustments to recycled water flow. This is not a procurement award, but it is a concrete maintenance and controls need tied to barrier operations. A controls or instrumentation vendor should watch for the retrofit scope once it is defined.

Public Updates

At its September 21, 2026 meeting staff reported that the Torrance Desalter design team moved away from autostrainers and was specifying additional redundant cartridge filter housings for RO pretreatment. Three additional housings were recommended. This indicates a live design change on a treatment plant that is still being refined, not a finished purchase. Vendors tied to filtration, pretreatment, or membrane systems should note the shift in design direction.
