El Dorado Irrigation District (EID) required the expansion of the existing Deer Creek Treatment Facility in El Dorado Hills, California. The sewage capacity prior to the expansion of this treatment facility was 2.5 million gallons per day (mgd). The completed expansion would increase the capacity to 3.6 mgd.

Syblon Reid renovated portions of the existing sewage facility, constructed and installed a new grit remover, secondary clarifier, gravity sludge thickeners, a sludge dewatering belt press, lime sludge stabilization equipment, 1 million gallon steel storage tank, related pumps and equipment, instrumentation and controls, and electrical power.

EID management was very happy with the outcome of this project. One member of management stated that this project was the best he had ever managed in over 20 years.
