Haynes Station Construction Update
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power is dismantling four natural power generating units that are no longer in service at the Haynes Generating Station adjacent to Leisure World. The Haynes Generating Station Units 3-6 Demolition Project is part of LADWP’s effort to create more sustainable options at the plant to work toward a clean energy future. The project is scheduled to be completed by summer 2021.
Project Update Through August
•Power Units 5 and 6: The metal frame of Units 5 and 6 will be cut into pieces, lifted and carefully lowered to the ground for removal. The work will require the use of torches, excavators and a crane.
• Power Units 3 and 4: Removal of hazardous materials from Units 3 and 4 will be completed in preparation for dismantling in early 2021.
• Environmental Monitoring: Monitoring instruments will measure dust, noise and vibration levels during all work to maintain levels below the required limits.
• Traffic: There will only be a few trucks entering and leaving the plant during daytime hours. No traffic impacts are expected. Work hours are Monday-Friday from 7 a.m.-6 p.m.
LADWP is committed to completing this project as safely and as quickly as possible. The project information line is 1-800-531-6638.
