SCV Water Invites Community to Ribbon Cutting for New PFAS Treatment Project
The Santa Clarita Valley Water Agency (SCV Water) will host a ribbon cutting ceremony on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, at 9:00 a.m., to celebrate the completion of the T&U Wells and Saugus 1 & 2 Wells PFAS Treatment Project at the Rio Vista Intake Pump Station. The project represents a major investment in public health and local groundwater reliability.
The project restores groundwater production from five existing wells that were previously taken out of service due to per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and volatile organic compound (VOC) impacts, allowing them to safely return to operation using advanced water treatment technology.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
The T&U Wells and Saugus 1 & 2 Wells PFAS Treatment Project restores up to 3,450 gallons per minute of local groundwater supply — enough water to serve approximately 5,000 families each year. The approximately $22.7 million project, paid in part by grant funding from the California Department of Water Resources, United States Environmental Protection Agency, and the State Water Resources Control Board, strengthens drought resilience while reducing reliance on imported water.
