The City and project team are committed to completing construction as safely and efficiently as possible, and the University City community’s patience and coordination are appreciated.

Why: Pure Water San Diego is the City of San Diego's phased, multi-year program that will provide nearly half of San Diego's water supply locally by 2035 and significantly reduce treated discharges from the Point Loma Wastewater Treatment Plant. Pure Water San Diego will use proven water purification technology to clean recycled water to produce safe, high-quality drinking water. The program offers a cost-effective investment for San Diego's water and wastewater needs. San Diegans are getting dual value from this investment — reliable, sustainable drinking water and avoided wastewater costs. The Morena Northern Pipelines and Tunnels project is one of several major water infrastructure projects in Phase 1 of Pure Water San Diego. 

The City is committed to clear communication and providing up-to-date information about construction activities. Construction notices will be regularly posted on utc.purewatersd.org.
