Summary
Three city wells exceed EPA PFAS limits and the canal water has detections too, so the council approved a $10.9 million design contract to treat Truckee Canal surface water, remove PFAS and expand capacity to 30 million gallons per day. Compliance deadline is 2029, possibly extended to 2031.
