Title

Nestle Waters North America Water Bottling Project

Description

The proposed water bottling facility to be constructed by Nestlé Waters North America (NWNA) will be approximately 1,000,000 square feet in size at buildout and will be located on the former Cal-Cedar mill site in McCloud, California. The McCloud Community Services District (MCSD) will provide spring water to the proposed facility and construct new lines from each of three springs: Intake Spring, Upper Elk and Lower Elk Spring. In addition, MCSD will upgrade the existing municipal water supply lines from the Upper Elk and Lower Elk Springs and the water collection system. Because the proposed project involves construction on portions of the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, an EA was prepared and is published with the EIR prepared by Siskiyou County in a joint document. A second component of the proposed project includes construction of new pipelines by the MCSD from Intake Spring, Upper Elk Spring and Lower Elk Spring to transmit spring water directly to the proposed bottling facility, as well as upgrades to existing MCSD water supply pipelines and collection facilities at Upper Elk and Lower Elk Springs. The provision of spring water to NWNA by the MCSD is addressed in an agreement. The agreement by its terms is conditioned upon completion of this environmental review. The agreement describes the terms under which MCSD will provide water to the proposed bottling facility.
