1 Removal of Natural Organic Matter (NOM) at the Deep Aquifer Treatment System (DATS) July 28, 2011 Carl W. Spangenberg, P.E., MSCE Senior Engineer Irvine Ranch Water District

2 Deep Aquifer Treatment System (DATS) Project Timeline Phase 1 - Initial Research, Feasibility Study & Funding (1986 to 1992) Phase 2 - Pilot Plant Construction & Demonstration Testing (1992 to 1997) Phase 3 - D/B of Groundwater Wells & Membrane Facility (1999 to 2002) Phase 4 - DATS In Operations (February 2002) Phase 5 - Concentrate Recovery Pilot Testing (2003 to 2006) Phase 6 - Concentrate Treatment System Constructed (2006 to 2007) Phase 7 - Concentrate Treatment System (CATS) in Operation (April 2007)

3 Deep Aquifer Treatment System (DATS) Two wells over 610 meters (2000 feet) deep produce 9.87 x 10 6 m 3 /year (8000 AFY (~8 MGD)) Water has low TDS, 330 mg/l But high color from natural organic matter (NOM), TOC~10 mg/l
