Document Description
The SAM Force Main in Montara Replacement Project (herein referenced as the “project”) is proposed for a sewer force main replacement along the alignment of the existing Intertie Pipeline System (IPS). The project is proposed by the Sewer Authority Mid-Coastside (SAM) and includes the construction of a sewer force main segment, starting within the boundaries of the Montara Water and Sewer District along Caltrans State Route 1 (SR-1) with a proposed length of approximately 13,540 feet. An existing 8-inch diameter Princeton force main connects to the project force main approximately 200 feet southwest of Coral Reef Avenue. The project will relocate this connection to the intersection of Coral Reef Avenue and SR-1 in order to avoid the requirement to work to connect the pipelines in sensitive environmental habitats. The project site is located along SR-1 between California Avenue in the community of Moss Beach and Sonora Avenue in the community of El Granada, within unincorporated San Mateo County (County), California. The project traverses the census-designated places of Miramar, El Granada, and Moss Beach. The project site is primarily developed along the paved road and open space.
