Location: Cultus Lake
Area (Hectares): 0.0837 ha +/-
BCGS Mapsheet: 92H001
Legal Description: THAT PART OF THE REMAINDER OF SECTION 30, TOWNSHIP 25, EAST OF THE COAST MERIDIAN, NEW WESTMINSTER DISTRICT

The purpose of this application is to construct a water main that will connect the Parkview Water System to the Cultus Lake Water System. This application is associated with Crown Land file No.2411567 which authorizes upgrades to the Parkview Water System.

The FVRD proposes to install a 400 mm HDPE water main that would supply the Cultus Lake Park area with water from the reservoir on Liumchen Forest Service Road. The benefits of the project would be an increase to available water flow from hydrants for the area and to Sunnyside Campground. The increased protection capacity would better protect the areas during fire events.

The proposed location for the water main was chosen due to favourable ground conditions, ease of access to the site, and elevation for maintaining safe working pressures. The current Parkview reservoir is a small structure built in the 1970?s and does not adequately supply water pressure for fire protection to the area.
