Sacramento water treatment plant to get multimillion-dollar makeover
Each year, Sacramento needs about a million more gallons of water per day to meet growing demand. Soon, the city’s water treatment plants will have a tough time keeping up. A new multi-million dollar plan aims to modernize the system, ensuring Sacramento’s future is flush with water. The city unveiled a plan called Water+. It will double the daily capacity of the existing Sacramento River water treatment plant, just off Interstate 5 and Richards Boulevard.
