LAVWMA is a joint powers agency created in 1974 by the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton and Dublin San Ramon Services District. Operations began in September 1979 with expansions in 1983, 1987, and 2005 for a current design capacity of 41.2 (mgd) of treated wastewater. The wastewater is conveyed via a 16 mile pipeline from Pleasanton to
San Leandro and enters the East Bay Dischargers Authority (EBDA) system for dechlorination and discharge through a deepwater outfall to the San Francisco Bay.

LAVWMA has nearly completed a series of projects that comprise the Export Pipeline Facilities Program. This $149 million program has expanded LAVWMA’s wet weather disposal capacity from 21 to 41.2 mgd through rehabilitation of the existing LAVWMA export pipeline, installation of a new pipeline, and construction of a new 41.2 mgd pumping station.
