Case Study: City Of Loma Linda, California SORB 33® System

Since 1997, the City and Lockheed Martin have worked together to conduct ongoing water sampling, construct five new wells, supplement local water supplies and enhance the existing water system. These enhancements have included upgrading equipment and technology; developing new water connections with the Cities of Redlands and San Bernardino; and installing treatment facilities such as the arsenic removal facility.

"Our goal is to provide Loma Linda with the safest water. Therefore, we knew this facility was a step forward in continuing to provide local residents with the highest quality of water," said Brad Owens, Director of Environmental Remediation for Lockheed Martin.
