Priorities
Designing a citywide groundwater treatment program to safeguard public health
PFAS contamination threatened Anaheim’s drinking water, putting millions at risk. The city and CDM Smith acted quickly to design and implement the largest interconnected multiple-well PFAS treatment program in the U.S. This multi-phase effort ensures regulatory compliance, restores groundwater reliability and delivers safe drinking water efficiently and cost-effectively.
Optimized operational flexibility
A robust facility design allows for future adjustments while maintaining system reliability.
