Verano Conchas Loop Pipeline Replacement
Starting August 2022 through July 2023
The scope of the project includes the installation of over 6,000 feet of new
6-inch waterline and 200 new water service laterals, as both reach the end
of their expected useful service life. While not a complicated project, it will involve some project coordination and cooperation from homeowners residing in this area.
On April 19, 2023, area residents were invited to and participated in a neighborhood meeting where the District and its contractor shared details regarding Phase II of the project schedule. (See ZOOM meeting below)

Common Questions
What is our water hardness?
Generally, the water hardness in Eldorado is about 300-350 parts per million or milligrams per liter. This is also equivalent to about 17-20 grains per gallon. If you wish to soften your tap water with a commercially available water softener, the installer will want to know this water hardness level in order to properly adjust the softener.
