Located at Whiskeytown Lake


CCCSD's Filter plant rennovation was completed in December 
of 1996. It's filtration capacity was increased from eight MGD
to a maximum of thirty-nine MGD (million gallons daily).
The plant uses the G.E. Fanuc 90/30 logic controller to monitor
and control every aspect of plant operations. The plant operator
is given a GUI (graphic user interface) through an HMI SCADA 
software program called Wonderware which allows the operator
total control over plant operations. The operator is given the 
ability to adjust flow rates, chemical doses, monitor both raw
and filtered water turbidities, trend (chart) flows, CL2 residuals,
tank levels, particulate matter...virtually any operation linked to
plant monitor and control is given to the plant operators.

Filter plant operators are:

Ron Carlin, Grade V certificate
Roger Schreiber, Grade V certificate
Tim Cass, Grade II certificate
