Summary

 

The City of Hayward obtains its entire water supply from the SF RWS at two turnouts, one at the Irvington Portal and one at the Newark valve lot. The distribution system consists of 6 main pressure zones, 14 water storage tanks, and 7 pump stations delivering water to upper pressure zones. The transmission system attached to the Hetch Hetchy aqueduct is complemented by two booster pump stations: the Decoto pump station, located along the Mission Boulevard 24” transmission main, and the Hesperian pump station, located along the Hesperian Boulevard 42” transmission main. Multiple pressure reducing stations interface between the transmission and distribution systems. Five emergency water wells can be brought online in the event of a transmission system failure.

 

There is at least one storage tank located within each pressure zone, with pump stations to deliver water to the higher elevation zones. Water is delivered to the 250 pressure zone from SF RWS with sufficient pressure under most conditions. Storage is located in the eastern portion of the City, east of Mission Blvd. The Decoto and/or Hesperian pump stations boost pressure in the 250 zone when necessary. All five emergency wells are located west of Mission Blvd., as are three of the City’s four emergency interties.
