Project Title: City of Cerritos Groundwater Arsenic Treatment System
Project Description: Due to the prolonged drought that California has faced over the last few years,
state lawmakers have placed great emphasis on developing new aquifers for drinking water provision
and restoring impaired aquifers to production. The resurrection of existing wells that have been
removed from service due to contamination offers energy and cost savings by avoiding the need for
additional drilling and construction. Over 7,600 wells statewide have arsenic levels exceeding the current
regulatory limit of 10 µg/L. Restoring the abandoned wells would provide a local drinking water source,
while avoiding the need for new infrastructure.
The project demonstrates an innovative, low energy, zero liquid discharge water treatment system using
adsorption process to remove arsenic, and potentially other contaminants and organics at the City of
Cerritos groundwater pumping station. The project funds full-scale water treatment system to
determine the operational costs, energy, and water savings of the proposed single-use adsorption
system for emerging contaminants. In addition, this demonstration project will validate the reduction in
spent adsorption media by natural dehydration to further save energy and water associated with
residual solid waste handling.

Project Title: Live Oak Well TCE Treatment with GAC
Project Description: The Live Oak Well, operated by the City of Arcadia, draws groundwater from the
Main San Gabriel Basin at a capacity of 3,500 gallons per minute and supplies water to the City’s potable
water supply. Measured TCE concentrations in the well were observed to be increasing above the
maximum contaminant limit (MCL). In order to maintain operation of the supply well and meet
standards set by DDW, the City retained our team to select and design a treatment system for treatment
of TCE at the well site.
The overall objective of this project was to design a groundwater remediation system for TCE removal.
Following a review of the available technologies based on technical feasibility and cost, a granular
activated carbon system was selected over an air stripping system. The design included the layout of
pipes and treatment equipment at the project site for optimum arrangement and detailed design of
the treatment system including site modifications. In addition, to partially defray the cost of treatment,
our team helped the City apply for Proposition 1 funding from the State of California.
